Only 14 players made the trip to Crusaders and the game was played without a no8 on each side.

For the second week running Wold conceded an early try and conversion that seemed to wake them up and wake them up it did. First Jess went through to score after some good forward work and then George picking up a loose ball in his half ran through to score and Jesse converted to make it 7-12, Crusaders truck back with a try and it was 12-12. Callum scored next as he out sprinted the Crusaders defence to make it 12-17 at halftime.

The second half was closer and both teams scored two tries a piece, firstly George ran from his half again after some strong forward play to score between the posts and then Sam powered through using his incredible acceleration to leave the defence behind him. Jesse converted both and Wold were up 12-31, the lack of subs was starting to tell and the boys had played so will to stop Crusaders when ever they attacked, as the half went on tiredness kicked and Crusaders scored two late tries and the final score was 24-31.

Powerful forward play from Harrison, Nathan, Charlie, Harry, Arlo, Joe and Will, they all tackled well and held Crusaders for much of the match, our back line of George, Jesse, Callum, Sam, Jake were on form today and were too quick for the defence, James from full back was quiet today but when he did get the ball he ran it back strongly. Arthur as always was reliable as scrum half.
