The Foxes made light work of the Hatters on Saturday evening, running out 28-14 winners in a regular-season clash that left little doubt about the quality gap between the sides. By then, the visitors had already established their dominance and showed no intention of letting up.
And here's the thing — the Foxes had looked sharp in their previous outing, hammering the Blue Jays 42-7 just a week earlier. That form carried through against the Hatters, who had struggled for consistency all season long.
To be fair, the Hatters haven't been finding their rhythm lately. They've lost four of their last five matches, with victories coming only against the Warriors back in September. The defensive frailties that plagued them against the Blue Jays were on full display once more.
The visitors controlled proceedings from the opening whistle, building an early lead that never truly wavered. The Hatters managed to score one try, but it came too late to make any real difference to the outcome.
This result extends the Foxes' winning streak to three games and puts fresh pressure on the Hatters' coaching staff to find solutions.
