The Nomura Varsity Match 2010 - Oxford vs. Cambridge

[TRF_Olyy]

What was that for?!
Was a good try for Cambridge but then the ref calls it back for something or other, despite not playing advantage or blowing in the minute or so of attack they had



Edit:
Penalty try for their troubles now though.

Oxford are repeating infringing and you wonder when he is going to show a card, crucial try that, although should have been given for the scrum before that.

Not sure what just happened to the Cambridge hooker, but that sounded nasty

Leg ... broken or knee

Oxford University 21-10 Cambridge University

Oxford (15) 21
Tries: Cheesman, Crozier Cons: Marr Pens: Marr 3

Cambridge (3) 10
Tries: Penalty Cons: Richards Pens: Richards

Oxford avenged last season's defeat to beat Cambridge 21-10 in the 129th annual Varsity Match at Twickenham.

Backs Alex Cheesman and James Crozier went over to give the Dark Blues a 15-3 lead at half-time, fly-half Charlie Marr kicking a conversion and penalty.

Cambridge skipper Jimmy Richards helped pull the Light Blues back into the game when he converted a penalty try which added to his earlier place kick.

But two further Marr penalties was enough to give Oxford the win

Is that Cheeseman any relation to the Dragons player?

Stan Mckeen a Canadian International is the man of the match, we really missed him on our November tour, good luck to him in his studies hope to see him in the lineup for the World Cup and the preparation games. Good game by Oxford a lot more physical than last years game.
