This week’s 12-36 loss to Middlesbrough was largely due to a poor performance by Novos, but was not helped by some rather perplexing refereeing decisions, despite Novos fielding one of the strongest sides this season. Sadly, injuries were sustained by Alex Milton, Justin Taylor and JP Addison, all of whom are likely to miss a number of weeks. Novos only tries were scored by Ben Forbes and Aaron Worthington. Thanks go to Ian Pratt and Mikko Heikkilla for stepping up from the 3’s after a couple of late withdrawals.
