Douglas miss out at home

Douglas lost 17-19 at home to Sefton in a game which they really should have won.

Andy Hollis’ 75 metre run-in opened the scoring for Douglas and they went further ahead courtesy of skipper Bryn Snellgrove.

Tom Chamberlain converted both tries to put Douglas 14-0 in front.

Sefton hit back though and were soon in front.

Douglas chased the game in the final quarter and when Chamberlain added a penalty they clawed their way to within striking distance.

However, they were frustrated by mistakes and a couple of refereeing decisions which didn’t quite go their way.
