Enniskillen 2nds welcomed Instonians on Saturday, still seeking their first win of the season, and having lost narrowly to them earlier in the season, this was a match that t’Skins wanted to target for two vital points. <\/p>\n

The early exchanges were positive and it soon became clear that ‘Skins were focused on the task at hand. Good set pieces were the key as half-backs Kyle Johnston and Daniel Allister sought to impose Enniskillen\u2019s game-plan on their visitors, with Kyle Graydon at no.8 making several early runs and providing the forward momentum. <\/p>\n

This combination led to good continuity and ball retention ending with Stephen Neill using his pace to touch-down for a fine try. This was a deserved lead but a series of silly penalties allowed Instonians back into the game and they replied with a straightforward penalty. ‘Skins did many good things in the first half but unforced handling errors and needless penalties conceded prevented them from adding any further scores.<\/p>\n

In the second half ‘Skins sought territory through the accurate kicking of Allister and put pressure on Instonians as they sought to run-back the ball. Skins\u2019 backrow of Johnny Wright, Graydon and Ross Finlay started to dominate the rucks enabling the forwards to set up a series of good drives into the visitors territory, resulting in one maul of fully 30 metres to the line and a try for Wright. <\/p>\n

‘Skins managed to continue their pressing game and this directly led to an Allister penalty, but it was a Neill intercept try ten minutes from time that put the game beyond the visitors reach. <\/p>\n

A spirited Inst. team never stopped trying and got a deserved try at the end to leave the score 20 – 8. <\/p>\n

This was a morale-boosting win for the seconds which was achieved on the back of an all-round team effort which should give encouragement for the matches ahead.<\/p>\n
