Guernsey Raiders win opening game for the first time in four years

Guernsey Raiders head coach Jordan Reynolds says his side are focusing on more difficult games to come after opening the new season with a victory

The Raiders ran in five tries as they won 29-23 at Colchester in National Three London.

Debutant Dan Hill and Tom Ceillam, Cameron Craine, Sam Whitehead, and Owen Thomas were the try scorers.

"To start well doesn't come from one win, it's got to come from multiple wins," Reynolds to BBC Radio Guernsey.

"We're pretty happy about the performance and considering how rusty we were we did play some really great rugby and we got into our structures well which was great to see.

"To get a bonus point up at Colchester, who are a decent side, was a great effort from our boys and they should be happy with themselves."
