It was a poor start for the Green and Whites after some early pressure from the visitors had them with their backs to the wall. Joshua Bragman threatened with an early penalty which glanced across the front of the posts before George Simpson went over on the sixth minute. Bragman made no mistakes with the…
A FAN’S VIEWPOINT – PETER TATTON Our last visit to the RAG in September to play Scottish in the cup was calamitous with both a serious injury to Will Millett & a very serious injury to Mat Clark which made the eventual close defeat almost irrelevant. This Friday by contrast saw an excellent well deserved…
A FAN’S VIEWPOINT – PETER TATTON A bit like buses you wait for years for a win at Headingley and then two come at once. Friday night saw a comprehensive ten try 62-10 win with nine of them scored by the backs, including a record-breaking five by Jack Spittle. It was the biggest winning away…
Nottingham secures a point at Lady Bay. Neil Fowkes’s team were the livelier of the two sides in the opening quarter of the game. Quick tap penalties from Murry kept the visiting Falcons on their toes, and it looked more likely that the home side would open the scoring. However, a driving maul…

It wasn’t an ideal start to the new year though as the Trailfinders were awarded an early penalty. Steven Shingler made no mistakes with the kick and the visitors took a quick…
Tries from Nile Dacres, Joe Buckle and Scott Tolmie rewarded the attacking effort of Coventry, with one try scored by Luke Cole for the Green and Whites.

There were no blue skies to be seen as Nottingham hosted the Bedford Blues on a wet afternoon on Trentside. The Green and Whites were quick out of the blocks, going ahead after just two minutes. Jack Spittle’s brilliant run split the Bedford defence down the left-hand side before he flicked the ball off to…
Forward power on a heavy pitch was the key ingredient that saw Jersey come from behind to claim a deserved win over Nottingham, the home side’s third consecutive Championship win at Stade Santander International. Several hours’ incessant rain eased just before kick-off but nevertheless left the pitch muddy and made handling difficult, putting a premium…
