With a few players unavailable, the match provided an ideal opportunity to blood a number of last year’s successful colts team, with O’Brien one of seven tryscorers.

Todd marked his debut with a touchdown and Joe Yeomanson, Nyle Beckett, Bobby Thompson, Pat Jenkinson and Simon Tyler also crossed.

Kicking duties were shared between Tyler (2) and O’Brien (4).
