Once again Redditch found themselves over 20 points down at the break, when they played away to Birmingham Exiles on Saturday.

The difference this week was that Redditch had not sacrificed the first 20  minutes but were competetive throughout the half.

Indeed Redditch had their chances in that first half and with a little more skill or even luck could have turned at 22-15.

Once again, Redditch livened up in the second half winning it comfortably.

There were many positives to come out of the game including a strong forward performance and some excellent back line work. The defence was outstanding for much of the game, but a couple of slips led to Exiles scoring soft tries.

See the full story in the match report.

Next week sees us at home to Bishop's Castle & Onwy Valley.

Kick off back to 3:00pm.
