Leigh RUFC u17 39 Glossop RUFC u17 0

LEIGH’S junior colts made it a deadly dozen victories to almost certainly clinch the Raging Bull C League title.

Game Glossop, although competitive, got little change from a Leigh team intent on maintaining their league lead.

Eliot Liku had an outstanding game, taking on the big Glossop pack and claiming a pair of tries for his efforts.

Good work from the forwards was complemented by great support play from the backs.

Scrum Half Aidan McMenemey produced determined running and defence, again supported by forwards who were not willing to take a backward step.

Tries from Rob Drake, Micheal O'Dwyer, Daniel Whittaker and Matty Wilkinson extended Leigh's lead.
