Despite the parameters of the small pitch Wheatley started strong, some might say superman strong, as if Wheatley had Great Britain’s 3rd strongest man on the wing! Five phases of intense play brought Wheatley a penalty in front of the posts, sensing that Wheatley where going to win comfortably, Seb Wilson decided to shank the penalty attempt wide, nobody likes an easy game.

This let off gave Chesham some hope and against the run of play and feeding off of Wheatley’s self-inflicted pressure, Chesham scored from a 5 metre scrum. Fortunately Adam Muir, a stalwart in the scoring department brought Wheatley a much need try, bringing the score line in Wheatley’s favour.

With renewed focus, Wheatley returned with a vengeance and much like Bruce Willis’s flawless performances in the Die Hard series epic, Wheatley scored 7 tries.

Special mention to the tries scored by Dingle ‘tell me what I did wrong ref’ and Joe ‘Trippy McTrip’ Hobdell. After a terrific sonny bill-esq off load from Kelsey, Dingle much like Forest Gump, pinned his ears back and went for it. RUN DINGLE RUUUUN!

A wise man once said “a picture paints a thousand words”, so I will spare you the 2000 words describing Joe’s excellent try and simply direct you to look at the two photos from the match, certainly no waddling for that try, hey Poochie!

With ten minutes to go Wheatley were up 42-12. Most would think that with a 5 point win in the bag it was time to shut up shop and see the game out. Well, Wheatley had the complete opposite agenda in mind. Instead Wheatley gave away a series of penalties in their own 22, leading to two yellow cards and two tries for Chesham under the posts, shamefully giving Chesham a bonus point and a score line that flattered them. Why play with 15 men when you can play with 13!?

Onwards and Upwards for Wheatley as they claim the dizzying heights of third place in the league.
