ending 2018 with 100% record still in tact

Altrincham Kersal played hosts to Leigh in the final League game of 2018.
On a very cold, wet and windy day Altrincham kersal took an early lead with a try following some immense work by the pack.
This was followed soon after with a further try to make the score 10-0.
Leigh replied with a penalty only to concede a further try making the score 17-3.
A further Leigh penalty was soon followed by another try for the home team making the score 22-6 at half time.

The second half was all Altrincham Kersal's with 6 tries being scored for no points against.The forwards dominated the scrums and line outs and there was an impressive display of hard solid defence as well as superb commitment at the breakdown to clear out the opposition.
It wasn't just a forwards day as throughout the match, and despite the weather, the backs created some great moves and opportunities that led to some impressive tries.

The game ended 60-0 to Altrincham Kersal giving them a further bonus point win and a ten try haul.
This leaves them leading the Lancs/ Cheshire Division One table.
