Pirates training match, Sunday 11 September


The Pirates played a training match against themselves on Sunday and it turned into a full blooded affair.  The teams were:

Skulls
Front row: Luke, Sean M, Tom
Second row: Matt S
Scrum half: Liam
Fly half: Jake S
Centre: Jake C
Wing: Tommy, Joe

Crossbones
Front row: Matt G, Tom T, Josh
Second row: Tal
Scrum half: Morgan
Fly half: Rhyddian
Centre: Harley
Wing: Jon, Owen

After a close opening with one converted try a piece the Skulls pulled away to score a good victory.  Key to this was good work at the breakdown and direct running.  The Crossbones had many good phases of play, but lost the ball at key times.  Try scorers for the Skulls were Luke, Matt S, Liam, Jake S and Joe to the solitary try from Matt G.  Player of the week was Liam who fell well a popped the ball up to keep it alive, plus a good all round game.
