Stratford are starting to turn a corner, says director of rugby Richard Pepperell

DIRECTOR of rugby Richard Pepperell believes Stratford are “starting to turn the corner” as their gritty display at Wolverhampton on Saturday earned a first win on the road this season.

Tries from Dan Whitby and Charlie Powell, as well as a brace of conversions and successful penalty from Gwilym Davis, helped the Black and Whites to back-to-back victories.

After a difficult start to the season, the Pearcecroft side have returned from the enforced break in good form and the success over Wolverhampton, which backed up the impressive home win over Whitchurch, has lifted them up to sixth in the table.
