Highs & Lows

 

  • Good to see Chris Collins back in the area to play a game, living in the south seems to have made him soft, he just seemed to get knock upon knock, maybe I should have let him come off with a cracked rib…..
  • Neil takes a hit and spills the ball, he’s really starting to fit in, must have been having a few training sessions with Keith on handling
  • Chris Collins try saving tackle
  • Divers through, oh no, Keith’s hands as well, he drops it
  • Good yards from Savs, Chris, Chester & Divers
  • Lowsey’s face when I put Nathan on the Westend team, sure I saw Nathan ‘abosh’ (a Lowsey word) him!
  • Chris kick and chase, get sit, offload to Stu B and Keith’s hands are back again, dropped certain try.
  • Horse, from the KO, “MINE” – oh no you guessed it, spilt it
  • Cant find anything nice to say about Keith in the match notes and it was so long ago, so let’s just say, he must have dropped a ball or two.
  • Horse & Ryan making big yards
  • 2nd half was back to basics, batter, batter….
  • Windy and Keith were dispatched to play for the opposition at half time for comments about Bruce and his balls
  • Side to side back moves were finished off in the corner by Chris, who then hit the cross bar with the conversion, took much time in the south sapping his strength
