PANTHERS SINK ROUGHYEDS
KASEY SMITH Boundary Park, Friday
OLDHAM 4
HALIFAX PANTHERS 40
HALIFAX stormed into the semifinals, with a trip to York lined up this Saturday, after spanking Oldham on their own turf.
The victory stretched the Panthers’ winning streak to five, capped by a near-perfect performance against an Oldham side they had not got the better of since 2017.
Perhaps Oldham thought it might be easy, having put Halifax under some real pressure in the opening ten minutes. But the Panthers stood firm and then unleashed their version of hell onto a dumbstruck Roughyeds, who couldn’t compete with them.
