i went to the game and can say that workington did not play well, but skolars did what they had to to win. they had some good sets going, their ball handling and passing was better than normal. we did not have a big pack,tony williams worked his heart off taking the ball up the middle, but they kept at workington, never giving in, defence on the line was good, the workington tries were caused by silly errors by skolars. the skolars players came out in the second half to driving rain, but seemed to play much better rugby...the pairings of olu and paxton and matty t and oliver fountain worked really well. andre vine, gareth honour played well and paul thorman had a great game. cory sims was ducking and dodging all over the place.
It doesnt matter what the workington fans say about the game....and they were pretty vocal about the game.....skolars lads deserved the win, lets hope that this has lifted them to play and win. shame about the coach trip...but it could have been worse if they had lost!!!!
