Having been convincingly beaten by Basildon at the start of the season, Rochford delivered their "full potential".
This truly was a team performance.
Matt (MOTM) opened the scoring in the first two mins giving the team the belief they needed to play a full 50 mins of rugby.
Tackle count was off the chart, with their big lads being taken down again and again. Quick ball from the break down gave us width and flair. Significant yardage gains with Monkey running nearly 80 yards. Heart pounding and lung bursting work rate from all topped off with constructive communication throughout directed us towards the win.
