On the back of their victory against Crowborough last week, Heathfield were looking to carry on their winning streak into the league. Unfortunately due to numbers Seaford couldn’t field a full side, so the fixture became a friendly with additional players from Hellingly. Sam Benians was quick to open the scoring with the ball coming quickly from a dominant Heathfield scrum. Heathfield again made good ground with Flanker Liam Parsons speed in the loose and they again scored from with Jack Baird running in a try. Just before half time the ball went wide to the left wing and Dommy Woods ran in a well deserved try.
In the second half Will Ross at inside centre made a terrific break, being stopped just short of the line, but Jack de Bruin was quick to capitalise scoring another for the greenies. The visitors scored one back capitalising from a close penalty and moving the ball wide, to a sleepy Green defence. Try number six came from James Rigby on the right Wing running from deep, which was well deserved after a few other similar breaks. Again the visitors scored showing great determination and using the strength of some of their bigger players. Rory Sweetman then went over the line after winger James Rigby had again opened up the right hand side with another show of pace, and balance. Again the visitors came back and scored. The last try came from Theo Michael running at inside centre and drawing a couple of defenders to put Will Ross over for the last try.
Heathfield showed they could use the ball their forwards could win with some great pace, timing and flair. Particular impressive were Sam Benians taking the ball at speed at inside centre and the wingers Woods and Rigby using their speed and the space to get on score sheet.
