Welcome to the Thunderdome where the Thunder, a team as popular as the Mad Max 2nd sequel was, will take on the Cambridge XV; owned by Michael Campbell, but led on the field by Talismanic number 10 Aaron Hunt.
28th Minute: Penalty to Thunder. Ben Storer infringing at the ruck - incorrect entry at the gate. Penalty taken by Matthew Scoble - scored.
33rd Minute: Penalty to Cambridge XV. Off side from Matthew Scoble. Penalty from 10m, scored by Aaron Hunt.
39th Minute: Try to Thunder RFC! That's rolling back the years there. From the back of a line out, the Thunder set up a superb rolling maul that pushes the Cambridge team back behind their try line. That's the power of the Thunder back row on display there. Try to Michael Chung. Converted by Matthew Scoble Half time here, and it's Thunder 10 - 3 Cambridge

44th Minute: Try to Cambridge XV. Farnikolo receives the ball from the scrum, dummies round Regan Hutchinson and then gives the big fend to Jordan Logan. Brilliant solo effort from Farnikolo Converted by Aaron Hunt That levels things up here. 10 - 10.
47th Minute: Penalty to Thunder. That's offside, and the ref's calling the Cambridge captain over. Just a warning, but another offense will see someone hit the bin, by the looks of things. Scoble takes the punt, and the Thunder regain the lead.
It's getting there. Now to just speed it up. Takes a while to sim at the moment as it sims 5 minutes at a time - this week I'll be enhancing it to sim 40 minutes at a time, and then we'll be done.
56th Minute: Try to the Cambridge XV! Ged King takes this one over after a 20m run. Again, the Cambridge XV find space off the back of the scrum. King spots a hole and no one is able to lay a hand on him. Cambridge takes the opportunity to bring on Choco Man. Whilst Aaron Hunt misses that from wide out.
