Picky, Sunday 11th November
Orkney U14s 47, Ross Sutherland U14s 52 The Under 14s finally had their first home game of the season kicking off at noon on a lovely Sunday afternoon. With a nearly full squad of 26 out of 27 players it was agreed to play 3 x 20 minute periods. Unfortunately, the 1st XV match v Gordonians has been called off due to weather & travel issues. It will be replayed at a later date. Don't Worry! - the Ladies game against Inverness Craig Dunain is still going ahead on Saturday. So if you're near Inverness, get along to Bught Park Pitches at 1pm (note Change of Time) and cheer on the Dragons! Also on Saturday, the club is open for Scotland's first game in the Autumn Tests against the Fijians! Grab a pint or share a bottle of prosecco over a hot macaroni or mince pie from 2pm! On Sunday at Picky, come along and see the future stars of Orkney RFC as the U14s & U16s play Ross Sutherland from 12:00 Tennent's National League Division 3 Pickaquoy, Saturday 3rd November 2018 Orkney RFC 31, Hillhead Jordanhill RFC 22 Orkney started brightly and went into an early lead against the wind with a try from Sean Cursiter which was converted by James Linklater, Hillhead replied shortly after with a long range penalty and after thirty minutes added to their tally with a long range try. Despite having the majority of possession for the reminder of the half Orkney could not break the Hillhead defence. Half time 8 -7 to the visitors. The East tournament was held on a blustery but thankfully dry day. P4/P5 tournament : 4 teams contested this tournament with 2 from West, Kirkwall and the home team East. West Greens started the completion with a 8-2 win over Kirkwall Whites. While losing the Whites showed good character and stuck to their task well. Next up West Blues beat East 8-4 but this was a close match with the score at 2-2 for a while before the Blues pulled away to win.
