RL CONFERENCE - NORTH WEST PREMIER DIVISION

RUNCORN RLC 10 LYMM RL 26

An excellent away day performance from Lymm RL allowed the Crouchley Lane outfit to pick up their first win of the campaign in the Rugby League Conference North West Premier Division.

Lymm played up the hill in the first half but it didn't seem to phase them as aggressive defence and hard work from the forward pack allowed them to set the platform.

First-half tries from James Dudley, a brace from the evergreen Mark Fitton as well as a score from the ever inspirational Pete Cannon and one Peter Leonard conversion gave the visitors a 4-18 interval advantage.

Having done the hard work Lymm then had the opportunity to play down the significant slope in the second-half and further scores followed from Richie Bancroft and Matt Rockey with Runcorn replying with one converted score of their own.

Lymm potentially should have registered more scores in a second-half they dominated but will still go into next weeks home match against Rhyl full of optimism.
