[Proper Prop]

Dinno +7
Goole +7
Pythons +7
Wath +7

[StirlingMortlocksGloves]

Dinnington vs Beverley - "Beavers Bummed by Big Di...nnington" - Dinno +70

Goole vs West Leeds - Goole have been the most inconsistent team in the comp. The game really depends on what Goole we see because they fluctuate week to week from bullying the top teams to looking like an U14's team. Taking the safe option. - West Leeds -7

Harrogate vs Old Rishworthians - Another tight call of a game. The Posh Pythons have been very hot and cold and you just never know what you will get. On the other side Rish seem to have found some form and playing good rugby. I dont think Pythons will have enough to stop the young Rish rolling on, however could go either way. - Old Rish -7

Leodiensians vs Wath - Short and Sweet,  Leos are shit. - Wath +70

Cheers,
The Glove Man

The Glove Man's Round Review

Dinnington 91 vs Beverley 12 - Dinnington really was stat padding. Clearly worried about for & against to get one up on Wath. 45-7 at the half and just kicked on in the second.

Goole 41 vs West Leeds 28 - West Leeds clearly struggled to travel as well as bit of home advantage went Goole's way. Either way looked a good game as a mid table clash should be and Goole will be happy with that. A loss West Leeds that makes the battle for 3rd to 8th the ever more tastier.

Harrogate 22 vs Rish 41 - Harrogate up 19-10 at the half. Second half score of 31-3 to Rish. Harrogate Must have forgotten how to play rugby. Are Rish a genuine contender for a top half finish as they seemed to out class Pythons in the second half. @GateProp where Rish too much for you or where Harrogate shit? (Unbiased if you can because i know you will never give the credit due for being well beaten.) Either way Rish are 5 games unbeaten with 2 great results away from home and i think they could roll into a few more great results before easter. It seems Something has clicked in the young bucks in the new year and they have all bought into a winning culture. West Leeds by no mean can take the fixture next week lightly non the less.

Leodiensians 9 vs Wath 76 - Leos taking three penalty goals has got to be a piss take. Games gone. Leos are shit. Wath should have put 100 on them.

Yours in Rugby,

To be honest I haven't seen the game yet. I've been out injured for the season so can't use rugby as an excuse not to work Saturday's at the moment. I'll try and catch up on the Veo throughout the week. From our point of view we have a severe injury crisis, particularly at prop, 2nd row, 10 and centre, and I was impressed we managed to scrape together 13 players to fulfil our 2nd team fixture. Old Rish are always a team we struggle against though and they are a team that have gotten stronger as the season has progressed like they did last year. The last few weeks we have started terribly and fought our way back into the game when it was too late, this week we started strongly and then fell away in the 2nd half. We seem to have a good 50 minutes in us every week but that is not enough in this league. 5 games left and no easy ones either.
