The opening round of the Scottish Conference League (Central) saw the Easterhouse Panthers prove to strong in a twenty four try romp over a weak Victoria Knights team.
The Panthers with no less than 9 Internationalists were a formidable force only turning the ball over on two occasions through laspses in concentration which would have otherwise an unblemished performance.

Scotland U18 were unable to build on a competitive first half as they fell to a heavy defeat at Sunnyside.
The young Scots trailed 10-4 at the break, Hull KR scrum-half Louis Senter’s unconverted try bookended by two from England centre Pete Szwandt. But the visitors raised their game after the interval and prop Craig Fairfield’s try was the only Scottish highlight in a largely one-sided second half.
