Friendlies Plymouth Argaum Chiefs...17 Okehampton II...17

DESPITE going 7-0 down from the kick-off and trailing to a second Okehampton try, the Chiefs' Phil Hall pulled back a try close to 40 minutes, and with Andy Critchley's conversion, were 12-7 behind at half-time.

Okehampton went in unconverted again on the hour, but Argaum pressure was converted to points with a second Hall try. With five minutes remaining, Hall brought it level with his hat-trick.

Argaum Tigers...7 DHSOB Wizards...17

ARGAUM went down against the Wizards for the second time in seven days, but the margin was much closer than last weeks' 87-pointer.

Tigers' forwards showed improvement, taking ball against head, but the pace of the Old Boys' backs won them the game.

DHS were leading 12-0 at the break with the back row of Scott Taylor, Simon Fernandez and Sean Kedzia winning the breakdowns.

Evergreen fly-half Chris Goodman marshalled his backs, and three Devonport tries came from centres Jim Moss, Tom Maher and winger Justin Corley.

The Tigers hit back with a penalty try from a pushover scrum, with flanker Lloyd Gould adding the conversion with 15 minutes remaining.

But despite plaudits for West Midlands exchange referee Richard Scutt, the tightly fought match closed with the Old Boys' Mark Scannell sent off in the last minute.
