Orkney S1’s Match Report v Granite City
10 November 2019

 
Granite City arrived with a squad of 12 S 1’s and with 8 Orkney players available a ten a side match was organised played over 3 periods of 15 minutes on a full length pitch with the width reduced.
 
As it was Remembrance Sunday a minutes silence was observed before the game started.
 
The match started off as an open affair with both teams attacking strongly with the defences being not so strong.
 
Orkney scored first with some good handling between Sammy Laughton, Angus Dougall, and Will Brass releasing Calum (one of the Granite City players) to open the scoring. From the restart Granite City attacked and then fumbled the ball. From the resultant scrum Orkney pressurised the Granite City defence with Craig Morris ending up with the ball to run over and score the second try. Will converted the try and Orkney were 12-0.

Match Report | Shetland Ladies v Orkney Dragons 2-11-19

6/11/2019

Tennent's Women's Caledonia North League (Stage 2)
Lerwick - Saturday 2nd November 2019
Shetland Ladies 48, Orkney Dragons 12


On Saturday 2nd November the Orkney Dragons  travelled up to Shetland in the second half of the Tennent's Women’s North League. Due to the nature of Loganair's winter flight timetable the journey involved flying via Aberdeen plus an overnight stay in Shetland.

With these added logistical pressures the Dragons found themselves travelling with just 2 replacements- a rather daunting prospect against a team like Shetland.
However in true Orkney RFC style they arrived in good spirits ready to take on whatever the Shetland Ponies had to throw at them. Unlike Orkney that day Shetland was dry and bright but with a strong easterly wind blowing up the park.
