CN break for a long throw in to the 18 area. NN clears well and is on the break. Great pace to the start of this match. The real key will be to see if CN can jump on NN early who will be coming off a long travel distance and hotel slumber. CN will be in school all week but sleeping in their own beds at night.
The field at the cage looks cut but that's about it. There are many dirt holes that would make even the groundskeeper at the JJB blush.
NN forces a long throw in the CN half but CN clears well. 56 1/2 yards wide is not much space for a sporting match. The ball is constantly out of bounds and Rory Delap would salivate at how easy he could rifle the ball in the net.
