Seaton Rangers  28     Broughton RR  12

Seaton overcame a major obstacle in there challenge for the Cumberland league title as they bounced back from the disappointment of the previous week against Kells. The first half was a poor affair and it looked like the absence of Shaun Johnsen and Ryan Blair was going to have an impact on the teams performance and playing with the wind Seaton could only manage to go in at half time 6 all and down to 12 men with Tom Curwen dismissed from the field after a flare up that also saw Wayne Bell and Brett Phillips given 10 minutes each. The second half saw Seaton step up a level and Broughton simply couldnt handle the increased tempo as Callum Phillips began to get quick ball from hooker and the unstoppable but rarely seen Peter Watson was introduced and his first contribution was to trample over the top of defenders to stretch the lead. Further tries were registered for Seaton by Paul Hopper, Mark Routledge, and Brett Phillips, to add to Tom Curwens sole first half try, Phillips adding three goals and brother Callum the man of the match one.

Broughtons tries came courtesy of Wayne Bell and Mark Walker with two Walker goals and there best man on the day was the consistent Richard Campbell
