Table-Toppers Trounce Torrington

he Chiefs travelled across the county in determined fashion in a 'top-versus-bottom' clash. As well documented, Tom Richards has left to try his hand in the southern hemisphere and so Mike Hunt was given the captaincy and James Riley drafted in at fly - half.

A slightly disjointed first half saw tries from Tom Worboys, Jake Turfrey and Tom Holliday all converted by Richard Hewitt. Hewitt added a penalty. The general theme was that there was too much individual running and much improvement could be made after the break.

This proved to be an understatement... 72 unanswered points in the second half ensured Argaum's biggest win of the season. Neal Walters touched down for his first Argaum try, showing great hands in the corner following some great creative skill from Ellery Jones. Skipper Hunt scored immediately after and when fullback Jake Turfrey went over, the floodgates opened.

Winger Dave Hall went over three times for his hat-trick, only to be matched by Worboys and Holliday. Mason Edwards was awarded a ten minute breather by the ref after an altercation with his opposite number, but made up in the other 70 with a man of the match display. No score himself, but DoR Dave Sansom was delighted with his contribution.

Jamie Burton should also be acknowledged as his outstanding work rate and work on the floor prevented the home side from getting any loose ball. Doing the hard work for others to profit from.

Further tries from Dan James and Ellery Jones completed the 15 try rout. James marshaling the midfield after spending some time back in the pack in recent weeks. Due to an injury to Hewitt, Turfrey took over the kicking duties and bagged four, the last one being slotted over by Skipper Mike Hunt, securing three conversions in the last three games
