Marine submerged by a Swindon glut
From the Swindon Advertiser, first published Tuesday 10th Dec 2002.
IT WAS Swindon's day in their under 14s derby battle against Supermarine, the Greenbridge Road side running out 72-0 winners.
It took winger Jason Wright just two minutes to open the scoring. And flanker Phil Cozens added the second four minutes later.
Jake Sheppard scored the third try of the half and Wright intercepted a pass on the 10-metre line to run in Swindon's fourth and his second with Dan Whitmore adding the conversion.
The fifth try was scored by Nick Honeyman-Brown and converted by Sam Morley.
Fly-half Dan Whitmore kicked off his try campaign for this season with two touchdowns, converting both to take the half-time score to 43-0.
Whitmore started the second half where he left off by scoring his third with just five minutes gone, closely followed by a try from the substitute winger, Adam Cussack.
Cozens scored his second of the day, converted by Whitmore, and Michael Calvert added to the tally from a set move from the base of the scrum.
No 8 Honeyman-Brown scored his second and Swindon's final try with just three minutes remaining, DanWhitmore converting.
