Results for the first round can be seen below:

Orkney lose out as Dumfries Saints continue winning run

25/10/2015

 
Orkney were defeated 16-8 by table-toppers Dumfries Saints at Pickaquoy on Saturday afternoon.

It was a match played in 'four seasons in one day' conditions with torrential rain giving way to sunny skies.

Dumfries showed why they are undefeated at the top of National League Division 3, and were a well-disciplined unit all round. They had the bulk of possession and territory in both halves and Orkney were perhaps fortunate not to lose by more, the visitors missing a couple of penalties and conversions.

​Orkney had their best spell late in the second half, when they scored their only try, but it was too little too late.

Orkney beat West of Scotland in keenly-fought contest

7/10/2015

 
BT National League Division 3
Pickaquoy Infield - Saturday, October 3
Orkney RFC 34, West of Scotland RFC 24

This wasn’t one for the faint-hearted. Orkney had to battle all the way against a fast and feisty West of Scotland side that made them work for every point they scored on the way to a 34-24 win at Pickaquoy on Saturday afternoon.

The referee was also made to work for his money in this National League Division 3 clash, pulling in the captains and various players during the match to keep a lid on things. Discipline was ragged at times and one off-the-ball incident mid way through the second half saw Orkney’s William Thomson and West of Scotland's coach/sub sidelined for 10 minutes in a double yellow-carding.
