Tough day at the office

First away game of the season and Tigers toiled with a few drop outs in the morning but never the less 16 players went across to face the league leaders and gave it their all. Up to 60mins Tigers down to 13 walking wounded still was in the game at 32-16.

However wasn't to be, it took 25 mins for the Tigers to cross the whitewash with Wayne Hartley dancing across and captain Nick Mitchell come back against the grain and took 3 defenders with him to score and Scott Lee converted.

35mins in Josh Machin who had only just entered the fray dived over from 3mm to score and Lee once again converted.

H/T Ovenden 22 Tigers 12

Straight after half time the Halifax outfit scored a couple of quick tries to make it 32-12 but then a ray of hope quickly followed by worry for the Tigers. On 52 mins Wayne Hartley who tried all day to pull the strings put a neat grubber kick through and lively half back Scott Lee out paced the covering full back to dive on the ball to the side of the post , but in doing so injured his ankle and was a massive blow to the Tigers as Lee was in form. Jamie Searby took over the kicking duties but struck the upright. 32-16 and Tigers had bit between their teeth.

For the next 8 minutes Tigers battled hard and went close a couple of times but then heart break. Tigers threw out a loose pass and Ovenden went 50m and scored 36-16 and Ossett run out of steam. Ovenden run in 20 more point to give score a little more varnished look.
