Hitting The Accelerator
A Seacroft Sharks player about to ghost through the opposition defence and register one of his team's four first half tries during a 28-16 victory over Birstall Victoria in Division Five (North) of amateur rugby league's Yorkshire League.
Sharks scored five tries at Seacroft Working Men's Club to lead a lively, third-versus-fourth encounter 28-0 in the 48th minute before Birstall hit back with three tries of their own.
The visitors would surely have added a fourth try had they not, on the last tackle, raiding down the left, opted to pass inside with a two-man overlap.
