| Judes travelled to Rochdale to play a very good Mayfield side. Judes were going into this a little blind and a little rusty as the past few weeks training and games have been disrupted. Judes kicked off and at 1st kept Mayfield trapped in their own half but this was short lived , Mayfield run the ball hard and their half backs run the Judes defence in circles. Judes just couldn't get going even after scoring a try and started to loose their heads a bit. It seemed to be 1 way traffic in the 1st half and it wasnt going Judes way. The whistle came for half time and the score wasnt out of reach at 16-6 to Mayfield but Judes were finding it hard . 2nd half started as the 1st ended and Judes were on the back foot yet again for most of the half. Then from a superb kick off Judes regained the ball as Mayfield knocked on . A try followed with a great little grubber kick just over the line and Judes seemed to get a little energy . The same followed at the next kick off , another knock on but this time a chip over the top and pounced on by the Judes attacking line . But with time running out Judes were looking at only their 2nd loss this season, in the end they proved why they have been moved up 2 divisions this season, everyone dug deep , played for each other and despite the scoreline they played to the final whistle . Judes took every point on offer to them and no one can ask for more.
