It's another tough season


By Rogero

The highlight of the 2022 season so far was the excellent victory away at Cornwall, but the reverse fixture saw the men from the far South West come up to Stebonheath and win by a similar margin. Elsewhere it has been a string of defeats, some very heavy indeed and the last derby was another thrashing administered by North Wales Crusaders. The heat will continue as there are some tough games coming up for the Raiders. Oldham are the visitors next weekend and then it is a trip to Doncaster. A match against London Skolars may be a real chance to shine - at home on 6th August.

Build it and they will come. Hopefully a few more positive results and possibly some closer scores against the stronger teams as the season matures.... 

Since rebranding as the West Wales Raiders (following the takeover of the South Wales Scorpions / Ironmen) the club have played 86 competitive games, winning two and drawing one. It would be excellent if the W's was added to before the current season finishes. The decision to sperate the history of the club(s) has meant some significant victories (as the Scorpions) have now been consigned to the archives. However we are where we are, and all lovers of RL in South and West Wales wish the club all the best for the coming weeks and months.

Reaching the playoffs in 2010 seems a lifetime ago...
