Neil's Notes v South Wales Scorpions : Sun Apr 15, 2012 8:05 am
Well another big points haul as expected but I am sure will not be happy to concead so many. Maybe in the next round we will have a proper home draw. I am sure come Thursday night there will be a buzz as we look to maintain our unbeaten run in the league against Leigh and keep top spot. The Hitman award sponsored by Halifax RLFC Players Association finally went to Sean Penkywicz to celebrate his 100th career try. On a day when the normal tough tackling was not top of the list it was fitting to mark Penky's achievement.
The only other matter in the Shay lounge after the game was the voting for Man of the Match as there was no Club 1873 with it being a cup game. In first place with 3 points was Dane Manning, second was Paul Handforth with 2 and in 3rd was Steve Tyrer with 1 point. With all 3 players collecting their first points in the Player of the Season awards for the Shay Lounge there was no change in the leading positions.
The half time draw winning number was 2746 picking up £117 .
Watch out for the draw for the next round of the Challenge Cup for away travel details if we get drawn away. The next round is on the weekend of 28/29th April.
