Anthony Posa: “I am looking to put the first half of the season behind us and start on Saturday to play with more shape and belief in ourselves.”
A rip-roaring game full of non stop rugby from both sides. Quite how Beverley RUFC ended up losing it after almost totally dominating it was a mystery. Even more baffling was how they failed to score a single try despite creating clear cut chances all afternoon. The midfield trio of Phil Duboulay, Junior Tupai and Sam Atiola were simply outstanding and this was probably the best the pack has played…
Another defeat for Beverley RUFC but this was a much improved performance and with the injured players beginning to return there is at last some light at the end of the tunnel. With results elsewhere again going in their favour they still have every chance to make a swift climb up the table. The return here of Sam Atiola to partner Junior Tupai in the centre has clearly restored to…
Beverley Grammar School has enjoyed a week with year 7 parents as they were invited to see, and take part in, what the boys do at the school. Parents joined all lessons from maths to P.E. and some had to admit they were shown up by the boys, one parent commented that during a maths lesson they ‘sat at the back of the class and was very embarrassed at how…
Beverley RUFC face the long trip across the Pennines on Saturday, to take on Birkenhead Park in the National League Div 3(North) Fixture. During last Saturday’s heavy defeat at the hands of Bradford & Bingley, the Beavers suffered another blow with hard working prop forward Mike Bradshaw joining the queue in the Physio’s room with a shoulder injury. However, there is a little light at the end of the tunnel…
Beverley RUFC’s season of woe continues as they face up to the most unbelievable injury crisis in memory. Last Saturday’s defeat by Lymm, not only cost them the points but also resulted in serious injuries to lock Matty Adams, flanker David Worrall and outside back Goran Jelencic. Other injuries incurred, although apparently less serious were to stand-off Phil Duboulay, scrum half Chris Infield and winger Rob Smith. Add to these…
Following their disappointing performance at Morley last Saturday where Beverley RUFC, once again fielded a patched up, depleted side and went down by 26 points to 7, they get the chance to make amends when they entertain Lymm at Beaver Park, kick off 3 p.m. Despite the fact that they hope to be in a position to field a more familiar looking side, Beverley RUFC know that they will not…
Beverley RUFC travel to West Yorkshire on Saturday to take on Morley in the National League 3(North) encounter in good spirits after their impressive win over Penrith last weekend. Beset by early season injuries and non availabilities, the Beavers fielded a young looking side made up of a number of players making their debuts at National 3 level. After a shaky start they settled down and although badly affected by…
What a match! Ten tries and nearly all of them as good as any you are likely to see all season. The game itself was no classic but the flair and attacking enterprise shown by both sides provided some great rugby. Bevelrey RUFC came back in fine style after an awful start to overcome a Penrith side which looked to have the game already wrapped up before it had hardly…
Beverley RUFC open their League campaign with a visit to league newcomers Burnage RFC in Cheshire. Despite having a successful pre-season with victories over Hull Ionians and Malton & Norton, the Beavers start their campaign with a somewhat depleted squad. First choice winger Goran Jelencic is suspended following his dismissal against Hull Ionians, centre Sam Atiola is awaiting his visa renewal and is, therefore, not available for selection. Last season’s…
The 2011/2012 season opened at Beaver Park, Beverley on Friday evening with Beverley RUFC taking on Hull Ionians in the first round of the Yorkshire Cup before a good sized crowd. An entertaining match was in prospect with National Two (North) side Ionians parading their string of newly signed players against a young National Three (North) Beverley RUFC side. Initial anticipation proved to be correct for this was an absolutely…
Beverley RUFC won the World Cup 10s this Saturday at Beaver Park. Beverley beat Hull in the final with tries from Dave Worrall, Sam Atiola and the Beavers new captain Junior Tupai. Tupai captained a team that included former Beverley United manager Daniel Williams. Williams who has not been seen on the local sports circuit for some time looked as though he may have discovered his perfect sport. Scoring a…
The final day victory that kept Beverley RUFC in Division Three North proved beyond a shadow of a doubt they deserved to stay in the division. They showed, with a full-strength team and with their minds fully on the job, they can compete with anyone in the division. Middlesborough found that out emphatically at Beaver Park on Saturday. Tries from Sam Atiola and Junior Tupai in the first period, and…
Beverley RUFC preserved their place in League Three North with a fine win in this dramatic relegation showdown. Beverley RUFC needed two points to ensure their survival; only a victory would do for Middlesbrough. In the end it was all fairly emphatic once Beverley RUFC had got the bit between their teeth. Early on they looked distinctly edgy and for twenty minutes they struggled to get their act together. Graham…
Eleven tries and plenty of expansive rugby but for Beverley RUFC the day was all rather unsatisfactory. They conceded three soft tries in the first quarter of an hour and never quite recovered from it. There was no lack of effort and at one stage they got back to within ten points but in the end they were well beaten. Rossendale still entertain hopes of a play-off place and they,…
Another excellent victory over fellow strugglers took Beverley RUFC to relative safety from relegation. But not quite. One more win from their last two games would be enough to ensure survival although this will not be necessary if Waterloo are defeated at Middlesbrough next week. Otherwise even now it could still be a very tight finish. With so much at stake this was always going to be a dog-eats-dog encounter. …
Beverley RUFC are off on their travels across the Pennines once again on Saturday for their crucial encounter with fellow relegation strugglers Waterloo. They certainly did themselves a power of good last week with a very impressive performance at Middlesbrough where they eased their problems with a 27 – 11 victory. Welcome as this performance and result was, a look at the relative statistics for Waterloo and Middlesbrough suggests that…
So near and yet so far. This was a heartbreaking result for Beverley RUFC who had played superbly throughout and were just five minutes away from inflicting only a second defeat of the season on the League Champions. It was a pulsating match from start to finish. Neither side ever got more than one score ahead and the afternoon was full of thrilling rugby in the spring sunshine. This was…
