AMATEUR RUGBY:

OLDHAM St Anne's ended their National Conference League Division One season with a 54-26 defeat at promotion-chasing Myton Warriors.

Tries from Carl Booth (two) and John Hobman helped the Hull side an early 18-0 lead.

Saints responded through Lee Forsythe, Andy Sands and Greg Worrall, with Kiel Lancashire kicking a conversion.

The home side took control and Kris Walker, Carl Booth, Dean Booth, Jimmy Jennison, Aaron Fewlass and Lee James all crossed, Ashley James keeping his 100-per-cent record with nine goals.

Saints’ other tries came from man-of-the-match Danny Kay, John Fox and David Cookson.




WATERHEAD were beaten 66-12 at Egremont in Division Two, a result that leaves the club in the re-election zone.

The high-flying Cumbrians were 32-6 up at half-time and John-Paul Brocklebank ended the game with 26 points on his own.

Craig Highton and Jack Pemberton tries and two Terry Fitzgerald goals provided Waterhead’s points.
