A two-try effort by fullback Tim Clements has helped Sydney Uni to a hard fought 36-6 win over Eastwood on Saturday.

The try count ended up being five to four in favour of the Students with the intensity of desperation of the contest underlined by the fact that four yellow cards were shown throughout the 80 minutes.

Nick Champion de Crespigny and Jack McCalman (Uni) along with Rhys Sheriff and Michael Icely (Eastwood) all spent time on the naughty chair.

Uni got a real surge midway through the first half when they racked up 22 unanswered points to run out to a 22-7 lead, but this match was never going to lie down quietly.
