HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHA. It’s happened again, better luck next year boys .
From kick off the cobras received the ball and instantly carved through BCWho, like a hot knife through butter with Ryogen scoring.
I kid you not we then turned them over straight off the restart & The Welsh Wizard ran a hard line through a gap bigger than the one between Ethan’s ears to score a second. The game genuinely continued in this fashion from start to finish, with many of the boys filling their boots. A personal highlight being Tillie’s ankle breaker on his way to his second.
On his final game MOTM honours go to the man himself Will Giles, who I’m reliably told had an even better last Walkies Wednesday.
DOTD has to go to BCWho for a pitiful turnout on home soil to extend an unwanted record.

Our finishers to run rings around the rigs of the BCWho goons tomorrow :)

The cobras started the new year back on the road searching for a win against UOB.
In a cagey affair characterised by more dropped balls than England in Australia we, as ever, found ourselves having conceded the first try coming from a UOB maul. It’s never easy finding yourself 5-0 down away early. And it doesn’t get any easier if you pass the ball directly to the opposition inside your own 22, which resulted in us finding ourselves 12-0 down. After a bollocking from the sidelines arses were kicked into gear and we immediately found ourselves in UOB territory for the first time, resulting in Malone going over for his first try of the year.
After the break the uptick in form continued, as we kept the pressure building. Culminating in Phil bursting through to score yet another try which was duly converted by Malone putting us in the lead.
Now despite our best efforts UOB went over one more time late on to take the win 17-14.

MOTM went to Ed Malone, for his best performance in a cobra shirt and a long overdue try.
DOTD has to go to our #9 for getting intercepted under the posts & for his ‘sh*te passes’
