Murrayfield off for another year

Your correspondent didn't make the first half due to work commitments, but apparently some piss poor tackling let in Porty for @ 7 tries which killed the game sadly.

Porty looked a fit well drilled outfit with their flanker Sean Hollywood looking a class apart.

Leith managed a try either side of half time and the second half was a much closer affair, with much improved tackling. The large number of call offs forced coach Bennett to don his boots for the full game which may have curtailed his Saturday night disco dancing antics. (gone are the days when he led the dancing with a broken/twisted ankle after several anaesthetic beers)

Back to league business on Saturday against the rejuvenated RDVC
