And at the other end of the scale .............

SCCU 125 took 1.5 points off VSG 1880 Offenbach despite being comprehensively out-rated. As good a start as we might have hoped for.

Terry has lost 4; Keith (inevitably) still playing on 3

The 65+ first team appear to be doing ok against France

Only 0.5 point today for SCCU 125 against Wales, that being thanks to Mike Gunn.
