S4, R7: Gamblers RUFC vs. CW Crabs RUFC (vBookie)

The ball is spread out wide to Truman Lee. He's got a bit of space here, and makes a good run. He gains 10m, but Furball is looming, and Lee can't afford to go into touch.
He offloads back infield to Warrington who passes to Humble who's there in support.

The next phase to be played from 26 metres on the Crabs side of the halfway line.

 

Simon Humble with the ball on the run here. Humble charges at the defensive line and shoves Classified out of the way.

He's gained 8m and offloads to Hornby.

The next phase to be played from 34 metres on the Crabs side of the halfway line.

 

Hornby sniffs an overlap out wide. Cut out pass to Tyson. Tyson with swift hands to Warrington. Warrington to Funkotron...

 

Haha. The Sim only has four teams space in it. The Crabs and Gamblers are both under Hurricanes and Spartans respectively. It impacts nothing other than the commentary output. I'll fix it at some point. Not sure why my replace all didn't work for this section though. Very odd.

 

Funkotron is seized upon by Speirs who rushes him from the side as he attempts to run the touchline...

 

...I think he had a foot in touch there.
Yes! The linesman's flag is up. Funkotron was out and that's the end of the game.

Interesting game. The bonus point for the Gamblers is very useful for them. Conditions suited the Crabs game much more and the weaknesses in some of the Gamblers back line let them down. On the plus side, Taylor had a superb game for the Gamblers despite a mediocre form rating and a low post rank.
