Round 2 of Midlands 2
15 September 2018
Melbourne RFC meet Ilkeston at Hallam Fields on what is expected to a dry but cloudy Saturday afternoon. Despite the weather, we hope to see a bright display from the green&gold.
Looking to build on their victory over Dronfield, Melbourne know that another stern test awaits them. Having held one of the early league favourites to a 7 - 7 draw away at Matlock last week, Ilkeston are a team building and seeking the heights of old. The green&gold must be wary and ensure they remained focused on the task at hand for the full 80 minutes.
Yet again, we hope to see a fiercely competed game where rugby is the winner.
