Crusader Colts 15, Huddersfield 12 - CRUSADER Colts started the new Millennium in fine style with some entertaining rugby in the opening stages against a well drilled Huddersfield side.

Tyrone Adams opened the scoring for the home side aft3r some forceful runs by the Colts midfield. Ian Woodwiss doubled the score with a well taken try after some excellent work by the Crusaders pack, who were dominant in all areas except the line-out.

With a 10-0 half time lead the Keighley side lost the plot with individualism taking over from controlled team play. The determined Huddersfield side took advantage to fight their way back into the game with an unconverted try.

With 10 minutes to go, a wild pass in midfield was intercepted by the Huddersfield centre who strolled over from half way for an unconverted try to give his side a two point lead.

With time running out, and after sustained pressure by the home pack, the ball was finally released to the backs and centre Dwain Wallis crossed for the match winning try.

On Sunday, January 9, they travel to Old Brodlians (Meet at 10am).
