Observations on scots v view game.
Riverview off to a flyer ... Up 15 nil, in no time ...looked like it was going to be an upset. But scots were playing horribly, or at least the backs seemed disjointed ... Altgh they remained composed. Kellaway not having his best day. Trying to be too cute, unnecessary inside balls ... But full credit to view for putting on good pressure.
Riverview front row was very dominant ... And i rate that view hooker .... Simply awesome... At least twice popping scots front row. Not sure what rule is on that, at schoolboy level ..?
But ref had good game ... Letting the game breathe
The scots hooker made up for his noticeable small size, with great general play.
Kellaway was hurling abuse at one of the second rowers, when seagulling ... If it was his brother, them kind of understand, if not, thinking he has an attitude problem ... Shouldn't communicate with team mates like that.
Getting a big head?!
Bowditch looked incredibly red faced ... Heart attack stuff ... But he played great ... Very hard to contain.
Scots very disjointed in the backs, pushing passes, like they didn't know one another.
Scots back row small but pacey
Scots brought it back to 15 to 12 at half time, as view ran out of puff
Second half scots continued to put on unanswered points, and showed glimpses of their brilliance, that might see them go unbeaten ... And view started to look bit beaten up, with a few hobbling
Points for my liking:
View, hutch, number 13 (3), view hooker (2), bowditch (1)
Scots : no 6 (3), no 7 (2) , no 8 (1) ... Although scots winger yassmin probably share that last point ... And half backs service was stellar
Tell u what scots front row will be sore, they got totally worked
And the scots backs will need to play a lot better than that next week
Anyway riverview will be good next year, as gather something like 12 will be back
