Lot of effort but no points

With Waths  woeful  injury count, selection could simply be a case of put the names of walking wounded into the hat and the first 18 out named on the team sheet
 
Against a running team like Wetherby Wath needed to defend with determination and hope points would eventually come and they did, In the first half standoff Jack Whitlam’s immaculate kicking and a blistering try By Steve Mason gave Wath 13 points but Wetherby responded with two converted tries   HT score 13 14 to Wetherby
 
Immediately after Half time a drop goal by the visitors gave them the lift to continue their running game. However Wath didn’t crumble and two more penalty goals saw them take the lead. Then Waths discipline disappeared which resulted in three yellow cards being given, oh dear, Now with strength in numbers Wetherby surged forward and further in discipline by Wath resulted in a penalty try being conceded and the game was lost
The result on the run of play seemed correct but with a little more composure Wath could have achieved the winning points not just the single bonus point
