Caithness RFC U18s vs Ross-Sutherland (0-22)

Ross-Sutherland's 2nd try

last minute try

Caithness RFC U18s lost 22-0 to Ross-Sutherland at Millbank yesterday.  The Greens were unlucky to lose by such a wide margin as they gave the vastly more experienced Ross-Sutherland side a good run for their money and more than held their own. They were losing 3-0 against the strong wind and sun until Ross-Sutherland scored a converted try in the last minute of the first half.

The blues scored a try in the first few minutes of the 2nd half to make it 15-0 and it stayed that way until the last minute of the game when they got another converted try.
