And so the season came to a close with a fine display of running rugby from two sides wanting to enjoy the freedom of Carey's on a generously beautiful afternoon. Although Radley were generally larger and ran in nine tries to Sherborne's three, the game was surprisingly close. 20-7 behind at half-time, the home side trailed just 25-21 with just over ten minutes remaining. Theo M wriggled through impossible gaps twice for a brace of finely-worked tries and the blistering pace of Soshiro F took him away for the third, the reliable boot of Number 8 Bertie P keeping Sherborne in the hunt. Ben C was the stand-out player for his non-stop determination at the breakdown and Tom H captained the side from scrum-half. There was plentiful parental support, so much better tackling than in September and a bunch of lads who felt they have achieved something this term, and who have clearly come a long way.
