Match Report

                            Canterbury 5th 25  Old Gravesendians 3rd  32

      A match in which the lead changed hands five times saw Canterbury pipped at the post as they lost only their second league game of the season.
     Gravesend were first on the scoreboard with an early penalty goal but the city side hit back with tries from Jake Upward and Ruari Batchelor.
    By half time the visitors had sneaked ahead through a converted try and a penalty goal and were handed an interception score soon after the interval.
    Canterbury's response was to up the forward pressure which was duly rewarded with two tries from Joe Wiltshire, both converted by Mark Cowling, and the game had swung again.
   The see-saw action continued with a Gravesend converted try cancelled by Cowling's penalty goal but with the scores level the visitors grabbed a late, decisive try after a Canterbury missed tackle.
