Undermanned Hounds Run out of Steam

Injuries and work commitments have seen Normanby only able to field four in a six man bench as they headed Bray Park to take on the fourth placed Holy Spirit.

The Hounds were well in the game for the majority, going to halftime with a slim lead. However the Hounds 2012 front rowers curse struck again in the first half with inspirational captain Michael Hinchcliffe surcoming to a hip and knee injury that looks to see him sidelined indefinitely.

Normanby had the game in hand, however they were fast running out of steam and combined with some crucial errors saw them hand the game back to the opposition as Holy Spirit  scored two late tries to take the victory.

Normanby are still in striking distance of the finals, with only a couple of wins putting them back into the top four. There is no doubt the Hounds have the team to make it, they just need to work on consistent execution of the game plan, and get some well deserved luck.

FINAL SCORE: Normanby 16 defeated by Pine Central Holy Spirit 24
