Scum 10 Def Logan City 8

GO SCUM!!! Yep! In 4 Years of trying Scum have never beaten Logan City before … That was until last night.

It was a victory to savour & one that will be remember by all who were there for a long time to scum – Well done fellas!

It was hard going all night; the conditions were slippery at Logan, this would ensure:

• That the forwards would pack plenty of scrums
• Contest a lot of line-outs,
• There was plenty of kicking
• Our backs were asked to defend all night.

Each of disciplines listed continued to improve throughout the night.

Scums 1^st try started from one of the few backline moves that got a chance to get out wide. This is by no means an indication of the skill-level of the game; rather it is merely a reflection that both sides were playing as conditions dictated: tight.

From our own half the ball was pumped down & wide; Chinesey and Sammy were in pursuit, it was 2 on 2 and one of our lads soccered it through.

Our 2^nd try in about the 5^th min of the 2^nd half came as a result of a great scum scrum push that saw the Logan halfback throw a rushed pass to their 5/8^th on their own line. Who was on the spot to pick-up the pieces? Our own “main man” although there were many others adding pressure to Logan.

Logan were sitting top of the table, this was a huge effort from Scum, here’s hoping that we can carry this form through the next few weeks over the other 2 top sides.

You little ripper - big effort !

Scum Vs Lawlords This match proved to be a much needed confidence builder. After our narrow first round loss to this arch nemesis Scum were keen to avenge and avenge we did. Credit must go to our forwards who tirelessly hammered the Lawlords defence to create some create clean phase ball only to be rewarded with 5 tries (unluckily 3 more). The backs again showed their skillful ability off the back of some hard yakka done by the forwards with Mark (Davo) Davidson returning after a couple of weeks out to score 2 classic wingers meat pies. As for the forwards, special mention must go to our tight five (sorry loosies) for playing like men posessed (aka Leo - who i though was going to explode even before running on). Again, great defence especially by our inside backs and overall well done to the entire team for holding the opposition to nil. Scum 29 - Lawlords 0
