Have to say in the 2nd half I got VERY frustrated by the number of times their No 3 Josh Casey deliberately locked arms with whoever he was marking at throw-ons (usually Fallon) and didn't get blown up once. A really dozy performance by the lino that side. First time - free kick. 2nd time - yellow. 3rd time - off; but no. Very weak officials, I thought, though it wouldn't have changed the result if they'd been outstanding. 2 harsh yellows for Truro, Adelsbury and Richards. H & R supporters were there but were too middle class and polite to make much noise (I'm from Twickenham 43 years ago so should know!) and as unsporting as I thought Casey was, I thought their 10 (Lowe) was an unusually polite player, even rolling the ball to Tom on several occasions when it was a goal kick to Truro. He'll get dropped next week if their management reads this!
