Well done Newton & Wild Boars!
Crosfields 30 - 26 Bury
Really disappointed, we definitely lost this game ourselves - a shocking 15 minute period in defence where we let 3 tries in killed us, we improved and were the better side for the most but just couldn't convert our chances. Some terrible handling, passing and decision-making did us. Crosfield tried a bit of bullying with a LOT of knees going in but we handled it well. They had 1 sent off for dissent and 1 sin-binned for dissent in the same incident. Plus 1 from each side sin-binned in a little fight after our 6'9" second rower went 40+ yards to score, and some little
person went in late with knees about 25 minutes after he'd grounded it. But no excuses, we were poor in execution and should have won.
I particularly enjoyed being offered out by their coach/manager, clearly suffers a bit of small man syndrome.
