Cirencester bounced back from the previous week's defeat to earn a hard fought 20-0 victory over durable opponents Bristol Saracens.

Playing up the slope in the first half, Ciren had to withstand early pressure from the visitors, but eventually got a foothold into the game.

Adam Seager opened his account with a second penalty shortly before half-time.

Scrappy ruck-ball enabled Martin Crouch to hack the ball through, which was gathered by brother Andy to score his first try for the 1st XV. Skipper Shane Marriott sliced through to score a second try,which was converted by Seager.

The fly-half then added a final penalty to close the scoring,

Cirencester have a break in the fixture list,with the next league game at Old Cryptians on October 23rd.
