GO MOSE ! 5 points

That’s a very impressive win, looks like the lads are really finding their rhythm. This league is so precarious, Sale an obvious standout example, but consistent sides like Roslyn Park finding the going though this season.

Well done!

[Westcountry Mose]

Excellent win. Well done all.

[grooveavenue]

As I said elsewhere - definately
a 5 pints for 5 points moment - with an additional half of lager lemonade shandy for my mate for Smithy's hattrick!
Well done Mose. Well done Smithy

[banjo]

Great win after an average first half. Cinderford try after 20 seconds because we couldn’t catch the kick off ! Similar try to Mose second half. Wore them down in the end and a decent 5 points in the bag. Support was excellent. Well done all.

[beermonster]

Excellent performance and 5 points. Well played Mose! Support was also excellent.

A few stats to chew on:

Our fourth win in a row (and we've now won six of the last seven games)
Our third away win - we're W3 L2 on the road
Our third try bonus point
A first hat-trick, for Aquile Smith

We remain fifth in the table, but closer to the teams above us than before, as Sedgley Park, Chinnor and Rams all lost.

Well played Moseley. I certainly wasn't expected us to get more than a point, so to get a win there and emphatically was one to savour, roll on Saturday.

[grooveavenue]

Oh! Ye of little faith kingsheathlad!
Long past concern about winning - we do it every week it seems nowadays - yawn!
More anxious about bonus points so lets keep up the winning streak 'til the break ( and continue after, obviously) but 2 or 3 more added bonus points will do me!!

Perhaps it's the fate of a team which has been struggling - and supporters too! - but I wonder whether we have a tendency to be a bit too critical when things are rocky and a bit too mealy mouthed when things are going well. This is an absolutely fantastic result and it's so great to see such a resounding result for an AWAY game. As we know, success can easily breed success and I can't recall when we have had such a positive run for many, many seasons. Depending on how things go we could easily be knocking at the top spot! Let's hope the roll we are on can continue next Saturday against Blackheath - there's every reason to be confident. Come on Mose! Great stuff!

Heard on the ref mic in first half. 'not drinking with you, your an animal'
Strange comment to make. 🙄

May be talking to himself or the assistant referee. 😁

Internal monologue? 

[Westcountry Mose]

Some well-worked tries by Mose. Quite impressive at times. Keep it going guys.
