Supermarine produced a Powergen Junior Vase upset by edging out hosts Aldermaston 8-6.

Without seven regular first teamers due to injury and unavailability, Marine handed their second team players their chance and they grabbed it with both hands.

In came veteran prop Mick Walford, James Massom, David Bliss, Graham McIntosh, Tony Lee, Lee Edmonds, Matt Hutton and Andy Uzzell, who all helped them to a famous victory.

Aldermaston camped on the Supermarine line for the first 10 minutes, but a solid defence foiled any attack on the Marine line.

That forced the hosts to kick for goal, rather than run a penalty and they opened their account to take a 3-0 lead.

But Supermarine stepped up a gear from the restart with attacking runs from James Titcombe and Tim Gallimore making dents in the defence.

Marine applied more pressure in the set-pieces and a try soon followed.

Fly-half Jonny Clarke dummied the back line to go clear and, after sprinting 50 metres, he offloaded to centre McIntosh to crash over for a debut try that was unconverted.

Marine were dominating the game, the scrums held firm by Mick Walford, who was making his first-team debut at the age of 40.

After the break, Marine attacked the Aldermaston line at every opportunity.

But the sin-binning of second row Mark Hoskins and subsequent penalty edged the home side back into the lead.

However, Marine attacked again and earned a penalty of their own as the home defence strayed offside. Clarke converted it and, despite playing with 14 men, Marine held on.
