Here's the Scorpion's back line.

All fit ... it must be a record.

If they win, they will be 'Glad all over' ... but I predict that they won't and will be in 'Bits and pieces'.

The younger members on the forum won't have a clue what I'm on about.

If they win they will be Reelin & Rockin if they score first it will be Catch us if you Can.

If they score a few tries it will be Over & Over

Lets hope before the kick off they had been in & out of the Red Balloon

Star of the show Tom Hodson 3 tries & a brilliant cover tackle.

good team performance and a deserved man of the match for tom hodson. when he set off from one wing to the other for that try saver i thought there was no way he was gona get there,great effort. tackling seems to be improving week on week. all in all good performance, great result

Re: Dons v South Wales Sunday 1/4/12 : Sun Apr 01, 2012 4:47 pm  

have to say I think Craig Robinson had a good game as always and is easily one of the best second rowers in the comp in my opinion - but rarely have I seen a more deserved man of the match than Tom Hodson today he was outstanding

ps he made two cover tackles if you count that one on his wing where he somehow managed to turn the stockier diving fellow on his back and held him up.

Our left side attack is also one of the more potent in recent memory with cooke, robbo, waterman and hodson all operating down that side.

A good day out and a great result.

I hope we took Cooke off because he wasn't needed rather than a recurrence of Achilles trouble.

Easy!

Rooney was not that good after all.

Next!!!

He didn't look in trouble so think it was probably precautionary. game was won. though he was stretching a bit when hyde was down injured
