It was a pulsating affair, with Scots scoring first after 7' courtesy of one of Scots best today, left wing, Barney Pinkerton (11), and which settled the Scots boys nerves.
And maybe too much so, because the JoeBoys responded with 2 converted tries of their own. Joeys 14-5.
Scots OC, Harry Bishop (13) collected the pill on the 22m, pins his ears back and dots down. Joeys 14-12
Scots forwards began to get on top late in the half, and unlike last week, pressure was converted on the stroke of HT with skipper Frazer Duff(2) scoring next to the uprights. Scots converts and goes to oranges, up 19-14.
Penalty to Scots in the 2nd Half, and the lead was 22-14.
JoeBoys as they always do, played it right out and scored out wide left with 4' remaining. Effortless conversion from out wide. Scots 22-21.
Couple of crucial turnovers to the Scotsmen to finish, and the lads in Gold had atoned for their Round 1 loss to Kings.
Father Jim's 3rds "triangulation" speculations may require quadratic equations to cover all possibilities; especially if TAS dust Kings a bit later this afternoon.
