Bonus point victory for Douglas in North One West

Douglas claim maximum points at Keswick

Douglas claimed their first bonus point win of the season when they beat early strugglers Keswick 36-0 away from home. Adam Boyd, James Maddrell, Mike Dunnett, Phil Plaatjies, Jordan Hogan and Carl Murray all went in for Douglas tries with Boyd adding three conversions.

 

Ramsey fall to another big defeat

Ramsey continue to find the going tough in Lancs/Cheshire Division 1. Normally unbeatable at Mooragh Park, they went down 57-14 to visitors Congleton. Ramsey leaked early tries and found themselves 36-9 adrift by half time with three Scott Kneale penalties keeping them just about in the game.  The home defence held out for twenty minutes in the second half and Congleton extended the lead to 57-9. A late try from Dan Bonwick was little consolation.

 

Vagabonds win on the road

Vagas won 36-8 away at Mossley hill to claim a bonus point win on the road. John Reilly, Mark Oldfield, Steve Gawne, James Clarke and Tom Gascoyne all went in for Vagas tries with Cameron Findlay kicking a penalty and three conversions.
