Thurrock 10, Gravesend 25
THURROCK Mens Firsts' disappointing start to the season continued at Oakfierld on Saturday wheere the visitors from acros the Thames exxerted a second half grip on the Regional 2 South East clash.
The sides turned round with Gravesend 10-5 ahead and Thurrock very much in the match thanks to no 8 Ben Timson's try when he drove through the visiting defence following a line-out.
However, the match got away from them in the second half and they now have a weekend off to lick their wounds and prepare for a trip to Old Colfeians on Saturday, 12 October.
It is a real opportunity for Thurrock to break their losing run as their hosts are the only side below them in the table - also with just one point from their four fixtures.

Thurrock Seconds were at Wanstead Seconds in the Group 1 Automotive Essex Merit League Division One and went down 62-29 at Centenary Fields.
