WHEN man of the match Jonny Lythgoe fielded a kick on his own line and ran the length of the pitch to open the scoring things looked good for Leigh East U11s.

Sloppy tackling led to Ince running in three tries before frontrower Steven Keegan took the ball 10 metres out to burst over the line for East's second try. Ince hit straight back to score the last points of the first half.

Lythgoe opened the scoring in the second half and then tackling demon Daniel Gunning added his name to the score sheet. Just as it looked like East were getting back on top Ince ran in another three tries and killed the game off.

Last try of the match went to Lythgoe again to complete what is fast becoming his obligatory hat-trick.
