West Region Update - 25 February 2020

What started off looking like being a great month of rugby, February has turned into a bit of a disaster with only three West 1 games played.

Of the games played, Kilmarnock have lost two, including at home Stewartry.  This meant these two swap places, with Stewartry now setting the pace in the West 1 Championship battle.

West League Update - 14 October 2019

It was another weather affected weekend across West Region, with two games off in the Mens Leagues (both waterlogged pitches), but that didn't stop teh rest of the Clubs, with plenty of action happening across our local communities.

There was a full card scheduled in the Womens League, but we also lost a couple of these games.  These two games however weren't down to the weather, but non-fulfilments due to player numbers.

As it's the school holidays, there were no Under 18 Conference games scheduled.

West 1

The big West 1 game of last weekend was the 1st v 2nd clash between Allan Glens and Stewartry.

Both were unbeaten and both had pretty stingy defences - come 4:45 on Saturday, Glens were still unbeaten and also still had a pretty stingy defence, whilst Stewartry were left licking their wounds and wondering how they managed to come away with zero points despite having a decent share of possession and conceding 59.

West Region Update - 6th October 2019

Well what a weekend of results: unexpected results, here, there and everywhere.  We have perhaps become a little lax due to the success rate of the Predictor Challenge so far, but this week is a bit of kick up the backside, and once the stats are produced, the Predictor report card will undoubtely say "must do better".

But what's bad for the Predictor, just makes the league campaign a little more exciting.

West Region Update - 22nd September 2019

It's been a strange start to the new season with several games off already for various reasons, but after the weekends results we are starting to get a bit of structure to the leagues.

West League Update - 7th January 2019

A high scoring weekend in West 1 with 443 points scored and goodness knows how many tries (14 in the Irvine v Stewartry game), but with bonus point wins for each of the four title challengers, there's no change at the top of the table.

West Results - 5th January 2019

So EK are still top, 63 points from 15 games, with Garnock 9 points behind but they have two games in hand.  Glens and Greenock are another 5 points behind, but they each have an additional game in hand.

West 2 Update

West 2 league leaders Lenzies trip to Glencruiten against 3rd place Oban on Saturday had the makings of a proper title ding dong, whilst 2nd placed Uddingston made the short trip south to 4th place Strathaven.  Wins for Oban and Uddy could see the gap close to 8 points with Uddy having a game in hand, and a Lenzie visit to Uddingston due this weekend, meant that things could look very interesting come close of business on Saturday night.

However, defeats for both Uddy and Oban gives us a bit of a title challenge anti-climax - not that Lenzie will be complaining.  The West 1 title contest looks to be going down to the wire, but in West 2, it's now a case of working out when we can mathematically name Lenzie as champions.

West 3 Update

We have a change at the top of West 3 as Waysiders lost their unbeaten record on the road to Mull.  WD have been going great guns all season, averaging nearly 50 points a game, so this one falls into the shock category (though 15% of Predictor entrants called it correctly).

A 60 points to 10 victory for Glasgow Uni Medics at Hyndland earns the Medics top spot, thanks to picking up a lose bonus in the game they lost to Cowal way back in September.  Both WD and the Medics have played 10 games so have 8 remaining, including each other home and away towards the end of the season - it will no doubt be these two games which decide who wins the West 3 title.

West League Update - 11th December 2018

First up, congratulations to Greenock Wanderers and Glasgow Uni Medics who won their respective finals in the West Regional Cup competitions.  Both the Shield and Bowl finals were played on the main pitch at Scotstoun with Uni Medics winning their contest against Birkmyre 31 -10 to lift the Bowl trophy, and Greenock Wanderers overcoming Dalziel 23 – 12 to lift the Shield trophy.

In the league, we had changes at the top of both West 1 and West 3, whilst in West 2 there was a “shock” result for one of the title challengers.
