Greenock 8 Cumnock S1s 14
The S1 team travelled to Greenock on a glorious Sunday afternoon, with conditions perfect to suit Cumnocks style of open running rugby.
Cumnock kicked-off the first period, playing into the sun. The game ebbed and flowed, with good breaks from both teams, with some equally good covering tackles when required. The Cumnock pack started to win some good ball at the breakdown and the backs got the chance to move the ball wide, showing off their excellent handling skills and running deep into the Greenock half. Just before the interval Cumnock pressure on the Greenock backs nearly resulted in a score, however there was a knock-on just before the touchdown. From the resulting five metre scrum, McLaren took one against the head allowing Kerr to release Aitken into the corner for the first score. Reilly converted to give Cumnock a 4-0 lead at the break.
The coaches were full of praise and looked for more of the same in the second period. However, Cumnock seemed to relax a bit and allowed Greenock more space to run at the defence. Two scores followed for Greenock, both of which were converted. Then Gordon broke from the back of a ruck just inside the Greenock half, fed to Reilly and after a looping run took the return pass and powered over for a well deserved score. Greenock had a slender 8-7 lead at the end of this period.
In the final 15 minutes of the game Cumnock domninated all phases of the play. The forwards were first to every breakdown and turned over Greenock time and time again. This gave Cumnock most of the posession and only some determined tackling from Greenock prevented the pacy Cumnock backs from scoring at will. Some great passing allowed the wingers a number of opportunities to run at their opposite numbers and Hendry, Wight and Reilly all had chances to score. Scrum-half Kerr was alert at a scrum near the Greenock line, picking up from the back of the scrum and darting through un-opposed for a fine score, with Reilly adding the extras. Shortly afterwards Reilly chipped through into the corner and the ever alert Aitken was first there to touch down for his second try of the day. A well deserved 14-8 vicory.
The coaches were full of praise for all of the team, particularly considering that this was only the fourth game of the season. No player was singled out as man of the match as this was a great team effort with everyone playing their part. However mention must be made of the donkey of the day, awarded to Aiden Kerr for his attempted drop goal, which only rose about two feet off the ground and struck the referee!
Team, Phillips, McLaren, Harkiss, Faulds, Gordon, Kerr, Reilly, Aitken, Howie, Wight and Hendry.

Cumnock RFC Under 18 and Under 15 girls reports from Sunday 8th November09
Cumnock Under 18s which could only travel up with 7 players. Unfortunately 1 player had to pull out during the day which left the Cumnock team an even harder with 6 players able to play for us.
First game had to borrow 3 players. The Cumnock team started reasonably strongly and were only beat two tries to nil. The half’s were 10 minutes each and it was a well worked Cumnock team.
The second game was against Gordon Schools, This time we only had 6 Cumnock players on the pitch and borrow 4 from other teams. The girls did show lots of effort but the numbers being depleted really affected the team. Gordon schools with 5 tries and 2 conversions. The girls really represented Cumnock really well on what was a really tough tournament for the Cumnock Under 18 Girls team.
Cumnock Under 15s team had already agreed to join forces with Aboyne (which we played last season in semi-final of cup) before going to this tournament.
The Cumnock Under 15 players really fitted in and played well with the Aboyne players. The Cumnock players were great representatives for Cumnock RFC.
The Aboyne/Cumnock team played 3 games which won 1 game, drew 1 game and lost 1 game. The Cumnock players were a great credit and well done to the Girls team.
Thanks to Mark Linden for Report.
