By Baz Johnson

A poor start for the visitors with a dead ball from the start, but this was probably the only error they made for what followed.
Within 5 minutes, ball through the hands left to right exposed the Home wing and Jake Lloyd opened the scoring, Jake Hennessey converting.

Some moments of individual brilliance from Dings.
A George Boulton Steal and a Kofi Cripps line break that should’ve been, but the handling errors that followed made scoring difficult including 2 mauls adjudged to be knocked forward.

Tomas Gwilliam broke the deadlock for the Crusaders with a team try on the fringes, expertly slotted by Jamie Elswood, but immediately Blackheath replied with an outstanding solo try from Scrum Half Jordan Burns carving from deep to dot down.

Dings back again 3 minutes later as a beautifully weighted kick from Elswood was effortlessly carried by Sol Taufa to score with Blackheaths Findlay Gilmour ending the half 14-19.

With the second half underway, it was Blackheath with the wind in their sails.
First with a driving maul, Will Harding crosses, and shortly after despite claims of a forward pass, Markus Burcham added more.
Harry Rowson took another darting run to cross for Dings, and he got a reply from Harding, then with Hennessey seeing yellow for foul play, Tommy Foot got Dings a vital losing bonus point.

Matthew Armstrong came from the bench to seal the game 26 -43
