Four-try Guernsey shine in Women's Siam victory
A STRONG four-try showing saw Guernsey's women seal the sole home win on Siam Cup day at Footes Lane.
While the other three senior matches were all going Jersey's way, Chris Griffiths' side secured an impressive 27-10 success on the old club pitch.
Tries from Rachel Merrien, Heidi Mahy, Fiona Ashworth and Daisy Travers secured the victory, which is Guernsey's third straight success in the fixture.
Indeed, the year before that was a draw, meaning that the Sarnians have not lost out to their Caesarean opponents since 2010.
Guernsey coach Griffiths is delighted that his team went out and produced the performance he asked of them, in what has been a busy season of games.
'It was the most structured performance that the girls have put together all season, which was really pleasing to see,' he said.
'They worked through their phases well and, although all four of the tries were scored from close in, they were all at the end of well-worked team efforts.
'Indeed, there isn't one individual that I would single out this time because all of the girls across the team produced strong performances.
