They had started the game positively, holding possession and slowly moving upfield, which resulted in Will Hunt's penalty beneath the posts giving them an early lead.

This was not to last as Sheffield slowly took control of the game and, 15 minutes in, the inevitable happened with Elliot Fisher diving over after a scrum maul; Sheffield's best outlet all game.

Although Fisher went over in the right-hand corner, Callum Posa was still able to land his first conversion of the afternoon.

Five minutes later and Fisher was in again with a carbon copy effort, this time in the opposite corner, though this try went unconverted.

There was a brief reprieve as Sheffield's Cameron Cutleugh was sinbinned for a high challenge.
