FORMBY Vikings Junior Colts played their second game of the season against Kendall RUFCon Sunday at home.
After their rst game ended in a narrow defeat against league leaders Tarleton, the Vikingswere determined to demonstrate they have the hunger and skills to compete as leaguecontenders.
Kendall were equally determined and in the rst ve minutes continuously attacked theVikings in their own half, and after three phases of play Kendall’s scrum half picked up theball from the base of a ruck, off loaded it to their y-half, who crashed into two Vikingdefenders, popped it to their centre who went over for a try under the posts. The conversionattempt was missed and the visitors were leading 0-5.
For the next ten minutes the Vikings threw their bodies on the line and defended againstwaves of Kendal attacks.
Physically the Vikings’ pack kept the ball tight in four, ve, six phases of play.
The Vikings reached the opposition 22 and a great break from the back of a maul sawAnthony Santos go over for an unconverted try just before half time.
The game continued in a physically hard game with great defence from both sides, howeverKendall began arguing amongst themselves and the Vikings were going from strength tostrength and there was a feeling that victory was in their grasp.
The pack continued with tight play and the tackling from 1 to 15 was awesome. A carboncopy of Santos’ rst half try saw him go over again to take the lead 10-5.
The next ten minutes saw some frantic play from both sides, however the nal score was10-5.
With the league due to be split, this has put us in a good position for the remainder of theseason.
