Looked all locked up to me, but I left after the final whistle.
The afternoon for me didn't get off to the best of starts, I never feel comfortable in BD postcodes (only just found out it doesn't stand for Brain Dead) and when I found my fish and chips were cold and wrapped in the Telegraph and Argos I knew my day was going down hill.
A very good first half, Queensbury playing down hill,and it is a slope, were winning 8 6 at half time. It was quite obvious that was not enough. Slowitt ran away 40 points to 8.
Lee, alias Urbancarrott did not recognise me and if I hadn't noticed his highlights before the game I would have though they were touches of grey after the match.
Enjoyed it, blimey it's cold up there.

Haha Hawkyard ! They did the same in the summer league with Marlon Billy.

I understand Greetland went to Ponty with only 12 men including two forwards & still managed to nudge a win. Stags & Whitehall both had good wins again too.

I don't mind ex pro's going and playing amatuer as long as they are not ued as ringers for certain games etc... Its only my personal opinion the lads didn't really say much but when you have a tight game like yesterday to throw on a current professional is a little naughty I think. The game was 8-6 with 20 minutes to go and they throw on richie hawkyard. Game finished 36-10.. It is not right, especially when you know come the second week in November these players won't be playing!

They do it every year, come back end of season they will be very average and their A team will also suffer as they will have to make numbers up in first team.

Lee,
With not being familiar with that division I had no idea whether one team or another had "ringers" in.
The problem seemed to be down your right wing, I'm pretty sure that's where their late tries came.
Queensbury certainly have some good players, obviously I don't know their names but to me 13, 7 and the old lad at 8 (don't tell him) and the player who got a bad lip and nose.
As i say of every game I watch Rugby League is the toughest sport in the world at whatever level.
Incidentally my Grandson, Stephens lad won opposition man of the match, man of the match and try of the match this morning for KCP under 8's.
Good luck to Queensbury for the rest of the season.
