Waverley 31 - Scots 26
How is this trial game not an annual fixture? Big crowd, local rivalry, blue collar vs white collar - it ticks all the boxes. Make it happen every year.
As for the game, Waverley could have won this game by 20 if it wasn't for numerous yellow cards. The scoreline did flatter Scots as Waverley lead from start to finish. Scots are a pretty small team - no real size in the forwards or backs but they do have a crack and don't quit. I don't know where Heinz L is but they desperately need him back.
As for Waves, both Finigan and the fullback Taurau were standouts. Finigan is such a good ball player, I can see why he's highly rated in league.
Scots won the 2nds 31-12. They're a very good team - rarely kicked and run it from everywhere.
