“We had a good chat at half time and made a few adjustments which allowed us to take control and ultimately see out the game .
“Despite having a few key members of the squad missing, it was good to see our squad utilised and everyone who played contributed to a great win.
“Our co-captain Mike Lagar gave an 80 minute performance from people leading from the front giving us a valuable platform to work from.”
Latchford’ s tries came from River Cole (3), Jack Brown, Ryan Edwards, Callum
Lyon, Louis Norton, Marshal Hayes, Will Maguire, with goals being added from Maguire (4), Lyon, Theo Gabbott.
