Come on the crigg boys tomorrow. Here's hoping that all our west yorkshire rivals can forget our differences for the day to help support each other. There will definitely be a strong hull presence tomorrow and I'm sure the boys in black would appreciate you making your west yorkshire voices heard. Let's have the yorkshire cup u12 in wakey where it belongs.

ok it might be a bit of I told you so but the Stanley Rangers u14s ended up being a run away victory at
58 -0.

at no time did Hunslet Warriors get anywhere to pressure our defense line that they couldn't handle which is why I believe they should look at seeding for the future.

twice we have lost in Barla finals heavily and today we was on the other side of the coin doing the hammering, with respect to to the Warriors some of the lads have come away wishing that they had been tested far greater than they had and didn't enjoy it as they did in the Semi against Skirlaugh where they won 8-4.

it was good to see our coach get every player up at the club house to give a little speech, very moving and also a lot of bonding going off

time to put our feet up for Xmas

so time for the lads to rest their aching bods

Congrats Snowie

been a great day at belle Vue today and I hope you too can get that win

what made the day that bit more special was meeting up with an old school pal that is part of the Barla set up and not seen him for 36 years

thank you, my lad shouldn't of been on the pitch today due to a nasty knee injury early this week

he gets my praise for understanding what its all about to be there if needed

Well done to all today, the winners and the losers.

Well done Lewis my old mate.

They had finished silly .Only thing to watch was dutty cutting the grass

just a little leveler for tomorrow, the pitch held up well as usual



we all know the stadium is tired

Certainly did - looked suberb as usual .
Probably holding up better than myself ... feel sick with nerves already !

I woke at 6 head down then back up again buzzing and I'm not coach

enjoy

good luck for tomorrow from what I have learned they at the top side

Cheers Snowie - think it'll be tight... we've watched them , and nodoubt they've watched us , but I think it'll be close - just hope nerves don't kick in too much and spoils what should be a great game .....can't believe I'm saying this about an under 12's game by the way ... but there's some cracking players even at this age .
Hope we do our club & league proud ( in the meantime I'll be bashing the Rioja !!).

you do , young wants his scrum cap still can not find it . and hes gone to bedroom already with tea and says hes having a early one.

think we will be the smartest dressed

and the lad is relishing his challenge as he knows already where he is

just looking forward but sickness as well thinking about it , the wyke game was bad enough.
they have a great chance but need to stay switched on. the "one man team" myth should be laid to rest as the player in question missed some games with that break dancing injury

Aye - hope he's not just watched Jason Donner-van and decided to do a few back flips again

id just like to wish both u12s teams the very best of luck for tommorow and i really hope that both sides enjoy the day and experiance.

may the best team win.

Ta !

fantastic day out for crigg 12s bring the Yorkshire cup back to wakey in this age group.
running out 14-10 AET .

half time was 10-0 but east hull rallied well to level and take the game to extra time , leaving one of our big lads to settle it with the try of the match.



im sure the paths will meet again , the 2 best IMHO made the final .

its a shame that BARLA & YJL still can not get themselves together as the junior game is flourishing

well done to Crigg in what sounded a close game

What a game, I have watched crigg all season and this was by far their best performance. The whole team were fantastic, as were the hull side. I know people talk about the so called one man team but I also know the one man well enough to know he never sees it that way. The whole team rallied together in extra time and for that 10 minutes completely outclassed their opponents. What a try but what a performance. Onwards and upwards together boys.

and i also heard the crigg parents mutts so take the blinkers off plse..also there were 3 very high shots and the old pigeon chests out on a few occasions which the hull boys did well not to respond to! well done to crigg but in the end the size of your boys won the game in difficult conditions.

.

How ridiculous and petty some people can be about a child's game. I take it that hull didn't have any big players, oh no actually they had a giant of a lad who played out of his skin but was dumped on his butt by some excellent tackling. He even approached some of the crigg lads and said as much. The high shots came from both sides and were hardly malicious. Grow up, the kids will show you how.

Does anyone know what was the score in the U18s was? (Elland v West Hull)

i only replied to mutts and stated what i saw about the high shots which ended up with 3 hull lads flat on their backs.. the crigg lad who scored the winning try finished very well and the hull lad who missed him must be gutted but as i said all credit to crigg for their win in difficult conditions...as for mutts comment about the language from the opposition, both myself and the 2 kids i was with heard some of the language used from your people which was industrial to say the least

Can't remember exactly but Elland won by about 4-6 points.
