Serious sport has nothing to do with fair play. It is bound up with hatred, jealousy, boastfulness, disregard of all rules, and sadistic pleasure in witnessing violence: in other words it is war minus the shooting.

Winners - Wire
Score - 58-14
Attendance - 9,789
MOM - Tyke
1st Wire try scorer - Blythe
1st Wire player to concede a penalty - Hill
Time (Minute) of 1st try (If needed in the event of a tie) 4 mins
Up to now, 7 entrants have mom's who aren't even in the squad and if you include another 2 players who are in the squad but strongly rumoured not to be playing then 20 entrants will be getting no mom points.
3 have 1st try scorers who aren't in the squad
8 have picked 1st try scorers who are not in the squad and this rises to 22 if 1 of the players rumoured not to be playing does miss out.
1 entrant has chosen NO squad players in his choices !!
