The overworked Halifax defensive line conceded a penalty and Scott Bowskill slotted an easy three points to extend the lead. Stocksbridge continued to dominate after the break. The pick and go tactic was working to good effect and Pete Newton was on hand to split the defence with some nifty footwork to cross the whitewash with Bowskill adding the extras.

Stocksbridge just couldn’t capitalise on their possession and the home side scored a further three tries as the visitors relaxed to make it 35-0 at the break. Stocksbridge made good use of the break and came out strong with Jack Spencer becoming more influential, Luke Gentles and Tom Spencer making good ground before Gentles touched down to get the visitors on the board. With spirits and confidence lifted, the development XV began to play a bit more freely and more tries followed from Joey Jones and Liam O’Leary, with Jack Spencer improving all of them from the kicking tee. Ossett had the last word with a comeback try of their own however, Development Coach Andy Bell was pleased with the effort of his charges and the performance of newcomer Tom Marshall in his first ever game of rugby.
