Superb Performances..
Haven 46- Batley Bulldogs
10
The floodgates were opened
by Morton in this one way game that
Haven dominated. A never ending stream of ideas and creative
passes from Leroy Joe was backed by a team that is total in both
defence and attack. Welcome aboard for the Big Fella Warren Stevens(pictured)
and Glenn Hutton who had the last Haven try in the dying stages
of the second half.
But no surpises for Man of
the Match award to David Seeds who made the new record with his
150 th try.
This came after Morton had made a second touchdown. His first
had been converted by O'Neill, but the kicker failed to convert
Morton's second.
A Mark Wallace try was converted
by ONeill to make it 20-0. Batley clawed back one but they could
not take anything from Haven who were almost completely error
free today.
Dean Vaughan who had a great game then fed to Leroy Joe who calmy
(Does he never get ruffled?) scored one and then minutes later
thanks to Spence Miller he scored again. Steve Kirkbride converted
to settle it at 30-4. Then the moment the Kells and and David
Seeds family had been waiting for....

It was a ball spun across half the field that eventually found
Seeds and he was able to fool the Batley defenders with a dummy
before turning to score.
His team mates are also seen
congratulating him...

Kirkbide converted (36-4) then Batley got another consolation
that was converted to end their scoring.
Leigh Smith then made a try for Haven which Kirkbride conmverted
to bring it to 42-10. The final try from Hutton rounded thing
off at 46-10.
Match sponsors were Bargain Madness. The gate was under 1,100. |
