After a morning of rain the afternoon brightened up with some glorious sunshine . After a few late cry offs Burton put out a 16 man strong team . Playing against 20 players traveling down the a50 from Stoke On Trent . This was including 4 players drafted in from Longton's 1st team to help bolster the numbers .

The game started well with some fantastic running and evading skills from Warren Lewis aka The Doc . Scoring on the five minute mark . With Gareth Sutton slotting the ball between the posts . 7-0 to Burton . Next on the score sheet was Eric our scrum half . Again with some clever running to breeze past the standing Stoke defence . Gareth Sutton again slots the ball home to make the score 14-0. Warren took a knock and then was replaced by our only replacement Joe Briggs . Who had been on the field for no more then 10 mins to score his first try of the game . Once again Sutton on fire from a tight angle slipping the posts . Once again some great work from the forwards . The ball worked wide to our winger Jason cox who side stepped 3 defenders to hand of the last man . Making scoring his first try for burton look like child's play .
