The lead would last 10 minutes though as Bletchey were caught napping at a penalty, allowing Drybrooke back into the game.

The visitors took the lead 10 minutes into the second half thanks to a rapid breakaway try, and simple converstion to lead 12-5.

Bletchley came back again though, and after stealing a Drybrooke line-out, Verity Robinson scored in the corner to pull the game within two points at 12-10.

With the game finely poised, Caroline Collie narrowly missed a penalty to put Bletchley ahead, but the home side were caught again on the break as Drybrooke raced down field to score the decisive try to win 19-10 and secure their place in the final.
