Swindon College continued their much improved league form with a comfortable victory.

Although the score line suggests a close game, the Old Boys were always in charge. The Corsham pitch was in suprisingly good condition after all the rain.

College kicked off and spent the first 20 minutes camped in the Corsham half.

If a few passes had gone to hand College would have taken an early lead. But from one of the dropped passes the Corsham winger picked up and went in to score, totally against the run of play.

College hit back immediately when second row Ben Green drove the ball on good ruck ball was quickly moved wide and full back Tony Flower was on hand to make the overlap and score in the corner.

The game continued with College on the attack and Corsham defending bravely.

The Corsham pack were guilty of killing the ball and Sean Millwaters kicked the resulting penalty to put College ahead.

Combative flanker John Godsell linked with No 8 Tony Brant and drove the ball on. It was fed to prop Jools Gidzinski who was stopped just short of the line. From the scrum College executed one of their set back row moves and winger Dave Brock went in to score. Millwaters converted from the touch-line.

The second half started much the same as the first with College dominating up front.

College forwards drove the ball down the centre of the pitch. From the maul Millwaters chipped the ball over and fly-half Mark Williams raced through to reach the ball first and score. Millwaters converted.

With 10 minutes to go College were guilty of relaxing and Corsham took advantage of this by running in two unconverted tries.

College then ended the game well on top, and were unlucky not to score in the dying minutes.

College man of the match was Ben Green, who had an outstanding game.

College now have a week off, followed by a local derby against Wootton Bassett on November 25 at Nationwide.
