DAN Hughes scored a hat-trick of tries as Gosford All Blacks stormed to a 42-0 home win over Chesham Stags in the BB&O Premier Division.
With members of England Women’s World Cup-winning team looking on, Gosford turned on the style.
A Rhys Hayward try, converted by Will Watts, set All Blacks on the way, but they had to wait until a minute before half-time to add to their lead when Hughes went over.
Hughes added two more tries in the second half with Ben Bodinham, Harry Sutton and Watts, who kicked a penalty and two conversions, also crossing the line.
