The Broncos posted three excelent wins in the HNC South today.
In the first game the Broncos played the newly rebranded West Lotian Chargers. In the past the Broncos have had to deal with being slow starters, but that certainly wsn’t the case today. By half time the Broncos were cruising. Everything was clicking into place whereas, the Chargers seemed like they needed another game to get warmed up.
Scoring Stats were:-
Fraser Thomson 4 passes for TDs 8 for XPs, one running TD and 2 Pick-Sixes (3 interceptions total).
Scott McKenzie 2 passes for TDS and 2 for XPs, one receiving TD and 3 XPs
Callum Woods 1 running TD, 2 receiving XPs.
Liam Fleming 1 Pick-six (three interceptions), 2 receiving TDs.
Matthew Ross 1 Receiving TD
Jimmy Thomson 1 receiving TD and one XP
Andy Brown 1 receiving XP
Jake Caldwell 1 receiving XP
David Mooney 1 TD
Kevin Woods 2 receiving XPs.
That shoul all add up to 76 points to nil.
The Broncos then Refereed the second game where the Chargers beat the Outlaws in a bit of a shock result 18 – 15.
In the third fixture, the Broncos faced the Carnegie Thunder who included former Broncos Josh and Scott Keir in their line-up.
Again the Broncos came out of the blocks fast and only suffered a slight hiccup when the Thunder scored a touchdown. In one unfortunate period for the Thunder the Bronos returned three pick sixes in a row. The scoring
stats were:-
Scott McKenzie passing for 2 TDs and receiving 1 XP pass.
Fraser Thomson passing for 2 TDs and 5 XPs and one pick-six (3 total Ints)
Liam Fleming 2 receiving TDs and 1 XP, 1 Pick-six
Kevin Woods 1 receiving XP, 1 Pick-six
Andy Brown 1 receiving XP, 1 Pick-six (2 ints total)
Mathew Ross 1 receiving XP
Callum Woods 2 receiving TDs
Daniel McGill 1 sack
Scott Keir passed to Fraser Reid for the Thunder score.
That should all add up to 53 points to 6.
The Broncos were then straight on against the Outlaws. This was always going to be the toughest game, with the history between the teams and the fact that the Broncos were into their third game.
The score remained at 0 – 0 for a good part of the first half, but once the Broncos finally broke the deadlock they quickly scored 3 touchdowns and had the ball first in the second half. They never really looked back from there.
Scoring stats:-
Fraser Thomson 4 Passing TDs
Callum Woods 2 Receiving TDs
Kevin Woods 1 receiving TD
Scott McKenzie 1 receiving TD.
The passer and receiver on the 2 XPs we scored were not recorded.
Jake Caldwell, 2 interceptions
Kevin Woods 1 interception
Liam Clutterbuck passed to Jordan Hepburn for the Outlaws TD.
Score 26 points to 6.
Well done to all of the Broncos players for an aoutstanding start to the season.
