A total dominant performance confirmed promotion for The Isle of Wight RFC, as they emphatically gained revenge for their earlier season defeat to Kingsclere.
From the first minute, as Nick Puckett won the chase to touch down a Williams chip, the hosts had the upper hand in all departments. Their second try was soon to follow as full back Stu Browne recovered a high ball to set up a quickly recycled ruck. Quick hands by the backs released Lymington Precision Engineers Man of the match, Chris Williams for the first of his three tries. Paisley added the conversion.
Kingsclere responded with a penalty from some 30 yards, but a break from a scrum by Neil Brading, supported by Adam Leal allowed Gareth Paisley to crash in the corner. This was soon followed by a confident Island side counter attacking, releasing Ian Rock to score.
From the ensuing kick off Williams dazzled the Kingsclere defence as he ran in from half way. Paisley again added the conversion.
It was then that the visitors had their most productive territorial play, pinning the Island on their line, but tough, robust defence hammered them back, turning over the ball at a scrum. The first half scoring was completed when Will Peters crashed over following a 5 meter scrum.
The dominance continued second half as recycled ball allowed Rock to claim his second. Full back Browne then added his name to the score sheet. Throwing two dummies to cross under the posts. One way traffic continued as Rock claimed his hat trick, then Adam Leal broke free to run in from half way.
Quick thinking by Williams and Paisley at a 22 kick, allowed Paisley to chase the kick, pick up and score. Williams then broke blind from a half way scrum to be supported by flanker Sandy Wilson to score. Williams then completed his hat trick before James Curran completed the scoring.
The Island now focus on completing the season by winning the division over the next couple of weeks.
