10/0 SIC

 

[TheSetPiece89]

View 10, Scots 0. Few mistakes from both sides thus far. Scots seeming to be getting frustrated with conditions.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Scots show no interest in contesting the ruck.

It’s a quick way to get tired if the other side can hold the ball in these conditions,

 

[footyhead1]

Scots playing much better. Showing what they can do

 

[Rookie21]

Newington hit back with an important try. Conversion successful.

Shore 13 - 7 Newington

 

[TheSetPiece89]

Scots playing much better. Showing what they can do

They are most certainly dominating possession. Riverview much better in the breakdown which is proving costly for Scots who continue to lose the ball in good positions. Riverview are their own worst enemy currently, can’t hold the ball.

 

[Rookie21]

Shore go over through Felix Harvison. Conversion successful.

Shore 20 - 7 Newington

 

[TheMaulester]

@Rookie21 (or anyone else at the game) do you know why the Newington number 8 got a yellow? From Streamer it looked like he said something to either the Shore boys or the Ref.

Halftime Kings 3 joeys 7

very evenly matched sides jt seems, kings captain attained a injury at start of the game.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

12/10 Scots lead.

Scots 15 having a great game. View scrum on top but seems this is a possession game today. Errors are going to happen. Whoever hold it’s the most can get over the line

Is it Scots year this year or next year??

Joeys once again a run first team, passing the ball laterally 2/3 passes away from the ruck straight from the first phases making Scots forwards run a lot with multiple phases. I’m not a fan of going wide before earning the right to, myself, particularly when you have 8 and 12 who are two of the strongest hit up runners in the comp. However Thommo’s tactics certainly tired the Scots forwards who were gone by half time. Joeys forwards looked very fit (again) and
Joeys games against Auggies & Newington showed that rain will be the catalyst for Joeys season. Joeys were vulnerable against Auggies, as the rain meant Joeys found the long lateral passes tactics difficult with the slippery ball. Joeys struggled. Auggies used their short kicking game overt the defence to great effect, just as the All Blacks play in the wet.
Against Newington in the first half it was dry and Joeys could move the ball wide and looked dangerous leading 19-5 with Newington defending most of the half . But in the second half the rain came Joeys couldn’t move the ball wide and actually lost the second half 7-5.

Joeys are clear favourites but will be vulnerable to rain and/or muddy grounds. Particularly the away games at Riverview, Scots and New that turn into muddy swamps after an inch of rain. Joeys will be very hard to beat on a dry track.

Joeys struggling at soaked Kings No.1, as stated previously Joeys style of rugby not good in wet weather and Joeys not playing wet weather footy tactics. Need short passes, one off the ruck and short kicks behind Kings defence.
