Where are you ffs?

Oh, what a pass by Cribb! Incredible stuff here! He's put in a perfectly weighted pass to Luffman who scythes through a yawning gap between Shriram and Classified. He's in - great try by Jake Luffman. A great run of 47 metres. TRY!!

TRY TO Spartans
Conversion attempt for the Spartans. Kick to be taken by Jake Luffman. Great kick. He's nailed that one and they earn the extra 2 points.

Crabs 26 - 36 Spartans

That's the game in all likelihood.
