Hindley's pitch passed an inspection this afternoon. Game definately on!!!!

The game at eccleston is more than likely going to be on I'd say, we have a cracking pitch this year for a change!

Shame about the posts! haha

Hindley 66-0 Bury!

Another enjoyable game at Hindley (despite the result!). Was always gonna be tough - we went with 3 props missing (1 injured, 1 working and the other just fcking vanished), and our last remaining prop twisted his ankle after about 15 mins. We started very cold and let in a few in the first 20, didn't even get a set before they were 3-4 tries up. After that we raised our game a bit and kept them scoreless for the last 20.

None of that takes away the fact Hindley are a good, well drilled side (apart from a stange moment from the No.9, who got taken off. I think he was upset at hitting the crossbar from about 10 yards out!), and they run and handle well. Quite a few big lads n'all, they should do well. Very tight in defence, not likely to concede many in this division.

Cheers fellas!

Eccleston 12 Waterhead 14

A game we could have and probably should have won, we where very flat and did not seem to have the energy we had last week. Ref was awful, but that aside well done to Waterhead

you was missing forwards last week against sthelens wild boars and give us the game how come today u were missing lads but played we needed the point difference if were to challenge at the top but u h1t out get lads who wana play

oh and wild boars 60 - westhoughton 10

a loss but a good game by the looks of it wouldnt have expected this u lads a eccy done well this season

Newton 42 - 34 Chorley

High scoring game on wot can only be described as a swamp.
Some good rugby played by both sides given the conditions.

Last week we had no PACK, never mind props! Plus one centre and no bench.

Missed the game today as i had work, glad to hear we won. I know that we had a few (at least 4) first teamers missing for this game. Dnt mean to take a gloss off what you said mate but we have eased off the pedal in the last 20 in virtually every game this year (except against rochdale and waterhead)

Great game considering the conditions.

Which number were you? Good bunch of lads.

I was Newton no.6 BTW.

I was the old man in 7

How dare you

Give us a clue wot number was ya.
