Thre3 is the magic number… Last time out here it was 5ive. This time, it’s the power of thre3. And that’s as close as I’d like it to be after a hard-fought win at Redingensians at the weekend. With OAs kicking off later, and subsequently delayed by traffic issues en route to Clifton, they always knew what they had to do and there was, therefore, little chance of them slipping up. We, on the other hand, had it all to do against the form team in National Two South to maintain that fiv3 point lead with thre3 games left. There may have been thre3 hat tricks against the Cornish All Blacks (one of them turned into a fiv3!) but there was little chance of that against a team that had won 7even on the spin. They scored first, we replied through George Bretag-Norris and went ahead just on half time via Albert Portsmouth. The third, from Steve Hipwell, broke Redingensians spirit for the most part, although they did score again, but number four (from Mike Ayrton) and the fifth (from Jarrod Taylor) put paid to any chance of anything other than 5ive points. Most colours can be mixed from just thre3 primary colours. But different primary colours are used for different purposes. For example, all the colours you see on a television screen are mixtures of red, green and blue light. With paint you can mix most colours from just red, yellow and blue pigments. The colours in books and magazines are usually printed from three coloured inks: cyan, magenta and yellow, although black ink is used as well. We use three primary colours because of the way our eyes work. At the back of our eyes are cells called cones which are sensitive to coloured light. There are thre3 different types of cone, each sensitive to different wavelengths of light. If our eyes were built differently and we had four types of cone cell, we would need to use four primary colours in printing, painting and television. The only colours we’re concerned with for the next thre3 games are Blood, Sand and Black. Our destiny is in our own hands. The letters A, F, H, K, N, Y and Z are all made up of three lines. Only N appears in Southend – A if you pronounce it as it’s oft spoken – but I’m reaching at this stage. Our visitors today also have thre3 games left to hold on to their National Two status, being second bottom as we approach this afternoon. Thre3 times 5ive is fifteen – the number of points available to them and the number of points they are from safety. They will not go quietly into the bottom thre3 at the end of term (and there are, by the way, thre3 of those in a school year). Once upon a time there were three little pigs... there were also three billy goats gruff... stories often begin this way and have a similar structure. Number one and number two are always similar so the listener is lulled into believing number thre3 will be the same. But with number thre3 there is often a twist in the tale. Not always, though – all thre3 mice were blind. And taking particular care to do the job right over the next thre3 games is essential. Oaths are traditionally repeated three times. COYBAS! COYBAS!
