Edogawa Stadium

Kubota Spears secured a commanding 33-5 victory over Mitsubishi Sagamihara Dynaboars at Edogawa Stadium. Faulua Makisi opened the scoring with a try just two minutes in, followed by successful conversions from Bernard Foley. The Spears built a strong lead with further tries from Malcolm Marx and Pieter Labuschagne, with Foley converting all three. Although Masataka Tsuruya managed to score for the Dynaboars just before halftime, it did little to shift the momentum. In the second half, Shinobu Fujiwara and Gerhard van den Heever added to the Spears' tally, with Foley continuing his perfect kicking. The Dynaboars struggled to find their rhythm throughout the match, hindered by the damp conditions. Overall, the Spears showcased their dominance and secured their second consecutive win over the Dynaboars this season.
