Arncliffe Scots Rugby League

Last night saw 3 Scot’s teams line up in the first of their semi-finals.  As each supporter will tell you, all 3 games were nail-biters. 

The Under 14s came from behind to register a 26-20 win over Renown.

The 18s lead for some of their game, but due some unfortunate situations ended up going down to Renown 10-18.

As it has been all year the Scots A Grade battled a close, hard-fought game against Kingsgrove Colts.  At one stage Scots were down 6-20 and things weren’t looking good.  But from somewhere they pulled an extra effort and managed to get the score to 24-24 at the full-time whistle.  This took the game into another 10 minutes of over-time, which still saw the score at 24-all.  And so into "golden point" extra time ….. there were a few attempts at field goals from both sides and both side almost crossed the line witha  try but to no avail.  That was until Josh Senikau, Scots full-back, kick a field goal.  The players on the bench and some supporters raced onto the field just as if it had been a grand final win (that is still a few weeks away).

Thanks to all the supporters that turned up.  You made a big difference to the players.
