Battling Clifton leave empty handed against Richmond


Clifton 10 -	26 Richmond

Clifton put in another good performance to continue their good form but lost out to the promotion chasing Richmond on Saturday. They were disappointed with the final score and to not pick up a losing bonus point after leading at half time and pressing strongly for periods in the second. However, Richmond are a strong and talented all round team and were able to score three second half tries to gain a bonus point win.

Clifton now have a week off from league action but will play Thornbury away in the semi final of the combination cup on Saturday.
