West Hartlepool 5 Beverley RUFC 39 Beverley RUFC ended the first half of the league season in fine style with a comprehensive victory over bottom placed West Hartlepool. This fixture in the past has often proved to be something of a banana skin for Beverley RUFC. Not this time. They played some scintillating rugby and romped home to move up to sixth in the table. Some of their rugby here…
Some fine enterprising rugby by Beverley RUFC brought them a comfortable victory and lifted them above their opponents in the table. Overall the game was by no means a classic but some of Beverley RUFC’s play was as good as we have seen all season Beating Rossendale 37 – 10. Not since the opening matches have they moved the ball so crisply and menacingly as they did here and Rossendale…
Beverley RUFC hope to build on their victory over Rochdale last Saturday with another when they pay their first ever visit to Rossendale in their National League Division 3 fixture this weekend. Rossendale were the early season favourites to possibly win the league this year, having recruited well during the last close season, but they have disappointed and are lying one place above the Beavers in the table with the…
Penrith and Beverley RUFC battled out a 19 – 19 draw on Saturday in a thrilling match and a grandstand finish. Beverley looked to have won it with a try in the dying seconds but the conversion from in front of the posts went agonisingly wide leaving the game ending in a draw. Taking the afternoon as a whole it was probably a fair result. Both teams had contributed to…
Beverley RUFC slipped to their fourth defeat in a row loosing out to Morley RFC 9 points to 6. Beverley had a late chance to level the scores though the penalty kick feel short of the posts. Beverley RUFC was once again hit with more injuries worries with Ian Archibald leaving the field of play of play in the second half with a suspected broken arm. Match report: A slippery…
This was more like it. Although they went down narrowly to high flying Middlesbrough Beverley RUFC were almost back to their best and were desperately unlucky not to win this match. Not many teams get any change out of a visit to Acklam Park but Beverley RUFC played enough good rugby here to have won this game comfortably. The home side were seldom in the Beverley RUFC 22 whereas Beverley…
A disappointing afternoon all round, for Beverley at any rate. It was a lovely autumn day with perfect playing conditions but sadly we got very little flowing rugby and for eighty minutes almost nothing but relentless grinding away by the Tigers’ forwards at the Beverley line. For the whole game the Beverley pack was heavily outgunned and pushed all over the place but they gave it everything in defence and…
Beverley RUFC entertain Sheffield Tigers this Saturday in a National League 3 North match at Beaver Park (kick off 3 p.m.). Over the past few years Tigers have risen up the leagues, overtaking their neighbours Sheffield to become the undisputed “top dogs” of South Yorkshire. They narrowly missed out to Hull RUFC on reaching the playoffs last season and are sure to provide formidable opposition to the Beavers on Saturday….
Darlington Mowden Park 36 Beverley 21 – After a disastrous first twenty minutes which left them trailing 21-5 Beverley steadily clawed their way back to 21-all only to succumb to two late tries and go down to a convincing defeat. It was a strange game. There was plenty of good rugby on view but for Beverley also plenty of frustration. Time and again when they should have kept the ball…
Beverley head to the North East on Saturday for the first of several trips to the area this season, for the National League 3 fixture against Darlington Mowden Park. Park have been a force in Northern rugby for a number of years but have slipped of late and were relegated last season from the old National league. Nonetheless they seem to have strengthened their squad somewhat for this season and…
Beverley RUFC’s influential centre Junior Tupai out with a broken Once again lady luck has turned her back on Beverley RUFC with influential centre Junior Tupai suffering a broken arm in a tenth minute injury at Chester last Saturday. This is the third broken arm suffered by Beverley players in as many weeks, in an unprecedented run of injuries. Goran Jelencic also suffered a horrific looking injury where he collided…
Chester 28 Beverley RFC 18 After two fine victories to get their season going this was a rather disappointing performance by Beverley who looked a shadow of the side that had played such sparkling rugby in their previous two games. They were not helped by early injuries to Junior Tupai and Goran Jelencic but they had a strangely pedestrian look about them and nearly all the good rugby came from…
