Aston Old Edwardians 12 - 58 Moseley Oak
Moseley Oak ran in 10 tries to defeat a spirited and tenacious Aston Old Edwardians team who are to be relegated.
It was a day for Moseley's Jacks with Jack Fairhurst,Jack Maclaren and Jack Richards scoring 7 tries between them, Fairhurst notching 4 and Jack Richards bagging his fiftieth try for the club.
Moseley Oak scored first through Jack Fairhurst after a break by Adam Billig. Aston then responded with some strong forward driving and were rewarded by two tries to take the lead.
Moseley Replied with a Dan Toth try followed by Jack Maclaren in the corner. Two more followed from Jack Fairhurst after an elusive run from Jack Richards and the first half closed with Duncan White powering over from short range.
Five more tries were scored in the second half including one from hooker,Jon Duckers who had an energetic game and won key turnovers. Other notable performances came from Tom Short and fly half Pierre Meunier who was personally thanked by his teammates after the match.
Third place in Midlands 2 West for Moseley Oak and for the second year in succession promotion has been missed narrowly.
The coaching team remain in place for next season and the squad will be strengthened.
