On Tuesday evening, July 21, the Stratford Eltham Colts played against Coastal.
Streltham took the game straight to the league leaders, scoring two unconverted tries, which went without reply until just before the break. At 10-7 up into the second half, Coastal showed why they were at the top of the table running in another two converted tries.
Streltham entered the next phase of dogged determination, with an interception on the 22 metre line to run in a much needed reply. A successful penalty following brought the lads right back into contention.
The team entered the last 10 minutes 20-19 down. The end game resulted with Streltham being awarded a penalty 30 metres out and 10 metres in from the side.
