Match report: 27th October
Glasgow Hawks v Hawick

GLASGOW HAWKS 24, HAWICK 10
After last weeks triumphant win in the Border derby against Melrose, Hawick travelled to Old Anniesland with confidence for this match against a Glasgow Hawks team who have been struggling of late with only two wins out of eight. Hawick, who had professional prop Geoff cross in their lineup, were always going to be in for a tough afternoon with Glasgow Hawks fielding three professionals.
Hawks got off to a good start and were twelve points up through tries from pros Sinclair and Shaw but Hawick came back strongly with a penalty from Craig Neish and a converted try from Andy Wilson. But from then on it was all a bit of a slog for Hawick who looked rather jaded on the day, with the lineout being particularly in need of some attention. Before the interval, Hawks other pro player Kerr touched down for a converted try to go 17-10 into the lead.
After the break, as in recent weeks a comeback was again required, but Hawick were unable to improve their first half scoreline. Hawks scored seven minutes from time to finish the scoring and record a deserved win by 24 points to 10.

Team:- B Sutherland, N Renwick, R Scott, C Neish, ,M Graham, R Hutton, K Reid, S Fleetwood, M Landels, G Cross, M Robertson, G Petrie, N McTaggart, D Landels, A Wilson 

Replacements; G Goodfellow, C Charters, B Turnbull, H Scammell, K Davies
