The Hunslet FB Watson is having a match that England's batsmen could sympathise with.

That bad ?

[Futtocks]

Hunslet are right back in the match now - with HT approaching, the scores are level at 18 all.

[Oliver Clothesoff]

Skolars being Skolars here. Start poorly, grow into the game, lead the game, make stupid mistakes and let the opposition back into the game. 

[Yorks Tim]

Skolars go back in the lead as we near the hour mark.

Good game for the neutral. I should have gone down

Its 30-24 to the Skolars with 10 to go. 

Quite the entertaining game, couple of errors though!

Hunslet score with a brilliant catch. 30 - 30. Getting very tense here with 7 to go!

[Yorks Tim]

Thorman MoM for me too

This has been very good - This last minutes are driving the anxiety levels up in me! 

 

Cant believe that tackle by Caro. Unbelievable

[Futtocks]

What drama! Hunslet win, right on the hooter.

Hunslet score on the final whistle - score out wide, kick to come, but 30 - 34. Great chase back try by Caro, but they just spread it out wide and they had the numbers.

Great speed by Caro. 

Congrats to Hunslet!

[Man of Kent]

Dearie me, Skolars. What a way to blow it.

Well done Hunslet

Replay looks like it may of been a forward pass on that last play. Touch judge seemed to indicate it was - but referee has overruled him? 

Unlucky. But congrats to Hunslet again!

[Chris22]

Brilliant composure by Hunslet at the end there, Skolars will feel as though they blew it.

[Bearman]

Great game

[Man of Kent]

Blantant forward pass but to be honest Skolars didn’t take their chance when it came so tough titties 

[Oliver Clothesoff]

Horrendous decision there at the end. The touch judge has bottled that for me.

Looks like....

Referees and officials get a lot of stock, often unwarranted but that’s a cop out. The touch judge should be demoted for that sort of bottling.

Well it makes up for the perfectly good try we had disallowed last minute up in Whitehaven , where we would have beaten them.the ref overruled the linesman that day too.

No, it doesn’t.

This has turned out to be a really really frustrating season for London. So close on too many occasions. Really not sure why same things keep going wrong. Hopefully, we can build from the positives next season.

You wouldn't say that if it was your team Oliver , I bet

I would. 

It’s not right to quantify balance based off mistakes.
