Inverness, Saturday 10th November 2018
Inverness Craig Dunain Ladies 5, Orkney Dragons 32

First half kick off by ICD received by our girls who ran straight back at the opposition and with a good set of through the hands passing put them up to ICD’s 22 followed by a driving run from Jennifer Scott scoring the first try 0-5.

 


​There followed a number of good defensive moves by the Dragons initiated by Beki Russell and Nikita Scollie producing good progression into the ICD half with direct running by the team allowed a driving push from Stacey Tualasea to run in try number two 0-10 the half time score.

In the second half ICD rallied in defence catching the Dragons off guard with a breakaway run scoring their first try 5-10.The Orkney Dragons then started to show the strength of their back line running from Hannah Cursiter, Dawn Simison, Page Archibald and Rebecca Scott pushing forward to outflank the ICD backs feeding the ball to the supporting forwards with Jo Inkster powering over to score try number three 5-15.

There followed various attacks from ICD with strong defence by the Dragons but a high tackle from Lucy Flett left them down a man for a sin bin.
This action seemed to galvanise the Dragons determination with Jo Inkster running in two tries in quick succession one converted by Nikita Scollie 5-27.

In good tackling unfortunately Megan Foubister lead with the head with one of the ICD players and got benched with a HIA.
Karen Allan came on plus number of tactical changes at that time brought on Caitlin Campbell, Amy King and first cap for Alison Marwick.

There followed a number of strong defensive plays by the Dragons holding ICD at bay gradually pushing them back and with an inspired play through gaps in the ICD line Rachael Thomson played a fantastic offload to Karen Allan allowing her to shoot through the ICD defence to score the final try finishing off the game 5-32 for the Orkney Dragons.

The Dragons next home game will be against Shetland Ladies on Saturday 24th November, 10:30 kick off at Picky.
