St Benedict’s are highly-regarded in the rugby world, with one of their coaches being former Jersey 1sts star Nathan Kemp. A well-drilled outfit, who had spent a week in the Island before the game, they led 17-15 and 24-22 in the second half before Jersey eventually prevailed.

An early penalty from Matt Kaye, followed by tries from scrum-half Harry Cochrane and back Charlie Hubert, the first following an excellent run by Sam Fuller, and the second a trademark weaving to the line, put Jersey 15-0 up, but the visitors responded well.
