There’s no Luc as Smith steals show

By RHYS STRATTON

Rosslyn Park……….49 Cinderford……………29

A LATE try denied Cinderford a second bonus point as Rosslyn Park secured a big win, with Luc Smith to the fore.

The visitors opened the scoring through a Joe Winfield penalty before Rosslyn Park ran in three tries unanswered as Benji Marfo crossed over in the corner before Josh Addams finished off a move, and Austin Hay got in on the act when he picked-andwent from outside the Cinderford 22 and ran it in under the posts.

Shaun Knight got Cinderford's first try late in the half against the 14-man Park who had lost Arthur Ellis to the sin-bin.

The second half opened with a score from Luc Smith as he made a line-break and outpaced his opposite number to the corner.

The away side answered back through Joe Mullis before Park Ben Olip re-established their lead via a powerful Craig Stevenson carry.

Cinderford again responded well to conceding, and Nathan Taylor quickly replied from the back of a maul.

When Jordan Martin failed to retreat 10m at a Cinderford tap-and-go, it resulted in a yellow card and a penalty try for the visitors.

Then, late on, Cinderford's Dan Hodge received a yellow which led to Cameron Terry crashing over to secure the win.
