...and just in time to play us......great. Looks like the Dons are having a big push for promotion.

Don't worry. Won't be playing Sunday. Both waiting for Visas. Should both get a couple of games before play offs.

It'll be the usual backs Sunday. I'd guess Halliday, Tali, Taulapapa and Butterworth. One of the misses out Jack Sanderson will step in so still not bad

Skolars 12 Hurricanes 22 at halftime.

[Jeff Stein]

Skolars 18 Hurricanes 38. Odds on now for Skolars worst season since joining the professional ranks.

[Yorks Tim]

Fairly comfortable win for Hurricanes on the road. Skolars are strong in the middle but couldn't stop our wing play. Two weeks off now before the trip to Oldham to finish off the season. 

[ChristianB]

Cornwall v Oldham should be a cracking game, especially with us coming into a bit of form of late.

Looking forward to seeing lots of heartland supporters at the Mem tomorrow.

It’ll be the usual backs on Sunday! Then hopefully some of them will be booted out for the Dads Army to come in. I bet the current incumbent backs are full of enthusiasm knowing they are about to get hooked regardless.

Oldham well on top. Cornwall looking well off the pace so far. 4-16 after 20 mins. 

[Northern Eel]

Yet another Cornwall mistake, and another try on the back of it. 4-20. 25 gone. 

[Northern Eel]

Another Oldham try down their left, which is exposing some significant vulnerability for Cornwall. They just can’t cope with the late withdrawal of Cam Brown. 4-26, 30 mins. 

[Northern Eel]

3 mins to go in the 1st half and Cornwall are punished for another mistake close to their own line. Oldham strolling in for a 4-32 lead. 

[Northern Eel]

A better first 10 of the second half for Cornwall, but sold ham add another 4 out wide. 4-36.

[Northern Eel]

Oldham cross once more from short range. 4-42. 

[Northern Eel]

Oldham score again, this time with a lovely move out wide, finished under the posts. 4-48, with 18 to go on the clock. 

[Northern Eel]

50 up for Oldham, with around 5 to go. 

[Northern Eel]

FT: Cornwall 4 Oldham 56

A clinical display from Oldham, with Cornwall unable to recover from a poor start. Better second half for Cornwall, but well short today.
