Ill do the U15 later as i'm confused about the scoreline was a very sloppy game.


St Helens U16 50 - 4 Crusaders U16

Try Scorers - Savelio 2, Thompson 2, Yates, Carr, Heaton, Scott, Fozzard

Goals - Carr 3, Roughley 2, Heaton, Fozzard

M.O.M - Luke Thompson

Saints forwards absolutely batterd the Crusaders in both defence and attack. Luke Thompson was awesome, he is a massive unit who runs good lines and is extremly fast for the lads size. Andre Savelio was his usual destructive self with the ball and the half back pairing of Heaton and Carr did well. Was also very impressed with Matty Gee who played for the first time at this level. Saints where missing the very talented duo of Lewis Galbraith and Lewis Charnock because of injury.

Excellent win lads.

Just for info Matty Gee is Jonny Lomax's cousin.

Yes, I think he was. He's a good lad,when he goes through a gap he doesn't get caught.

Re: St Helens Scholarship 2011 : Sun May 08, 2011 5:27 pm  

Was talking to someone at saints yesterday afternoon after saints v eagles and he told me Andre Savelio is one to watch.

Anyone seen him play?

Both teams won, however the U15's struggled. 2 new players have been signed this week in Dan Abram (Sale) and Will Weir (Warrington).

Our U16's won 50 - 4 following on from their 48-0 win last week.

Ill write the reports soon.

How were the 4 (Martin Davies) and 5 (Adam Green) for Crusaders? Both impressed in a well beaten side v Wigan last week.

Re: St Helens Scholarship 2011 : Sun May 08, 2011 6:33 pm  

The U15s did struggle - particularly 1st half when they were losing 16-14 until the last play of the half when they scored (18-16). 2nd half was better and I made the final score 38-24.

St Helens U15 38 - 24 Crusaders U16

1. Adam Saunders
2. Deon Cross
3. Matthew Whitley
4. Will Weir
5. Alex Porter
6. Daniel Abram
7. Josh Wood
8. Rob Harmon
9. Josh Crehan
10. Oliver Davies

12. Josh Swift
13. Joe Ryan

14. Tom Davies
15. Connor Smith
16. Robbie Hand
17. Scott oakes
18. Ryan Connelly

Try Scorers - Saunders 3, Cross 2, Porter, Oakes, Whitley

Goals - Davies, Connelly, Smith

M.O.M - Adam Saunders

Very scrappy game for Saints still missing the excellent David Hewitt because of injury and Dom Elkin and Jed Mawdsley because of Saddleworth reaching the Oldham final. Rob Harmon and Oliver Davies provided the hard yards while Adam Saunders was excellent at the back, slotting into the line in attack and looking very fast and skillfull. Lots of improvement needed if we're to beat Widnes at Thatto Heath on Saturday.

Re: St Helens Scholarship 2011 : Tue May 10, 2011 6:37 pm  

Didn't see much of the under 15's game, but the 16's looked pretty good in attack and defence. One try conceeded in two games and close to a hundred points scored. Keep it up lads.

Re: St Helens Scholarship 2011 : Fri May 13, 2011 9:08 am  

Good to see Daniel Abram playing Rugby League, i remember reading that Rugby Union were after him.

With Greg Richards coming from Cumbria and now playing for Chorley Panthers does that mean we have some arrangement with them ? Wold have thought they would have been in the Wigan Service Area ???

Chorley Panthers fall within the Lancashire Service Area. It's a bit misleading as it covers teams from Leyland, Chorley, Blackpool, Heysham and West Craven (these were the only teams involved when I was coaching - maybe Accrington now, if they have a junior setup).
