DESPITE missing several key players and being behind at half-time, Minety's second string staged an impressive second half fightback to make it six wins on the trot.

Hosts Supermarine were the first to get into their stride, scoring after 10 minutes when their number 8 picked up the ball and broke from the base of the scrum to go over for a converted try.

Minety replied with a try from Duncan Drewett, who scored after an impressive break from centre Mark Turner. A try from captain Mike Strong gave Minety the lead, and winger Ollie Bown stretched his side's advantage after good work from Simon Strong and Drewett.

Supermarine closed the gap to three points with an unconverted score, but Minety had the last word and Milnes wriggled over for a try which was converted by Stokes.
