Kelso 28 Aberdeen Grammar 41 |
Kelso 28 Aberdeen Grammar 41 Kelso scored 28 points in their opening game of the season at Poynder Park and still lost the game. This was a game that they could and probably should have won, given the amount of possession that the forwards obtained. The fact that they didn’t win is down to 1 factor. Missed tackles. It is many years since I have seen so many missed tackles by a Kelso team ... [more]

Kelso 9 Selkirk 25 |
KELSO 9 SELKIRK 25 Selkirk deserved their victory in this Border derby at Poynder Park. It wasn’t a classic game but both sets of players gave their utmost. Selkirk who have been in good form this season started the better and David Cassidy soon put them ahead with a penalty. This was increased shortly afterwards when a slack kick out of defence was pounced upon by Lee Jones who showed the ... [more]

Hillhead/Jordanhill 9 Kelso 11 Kelso’s season at long last was kick started into life with a victory in Glasgow. There had been a good atmosphere at Poynder Park all week.

KELSO 14 MUSSELBURGH 0 Playing with a stiff breeze behind them in the first half, Kelso got off to a good start when Kevin Utterson kicked a penalty after only 3 minutes. The Musselburgh forwards then began to dominate proceedings and their pick and drives and rolling mauls were giving Kelso lots of problems. Indeed one rolling maul must have gone 40 metres. Luckily for Kelso the Musselbur ... [more]

KELSO 31 STEWART’S MELVILLE 15 This was a game that Kelso felt they could win and they started briskly and Ewan Ford hit the uprights with a drop goal attempt, but it was Stu-Mel that went into an early lead when James Moran slotted home a penalty. This unsettled Kelso for a while and the Stu-Mel forwards looked as though they might get on top. Kelso weathered this and gradually began to ... [more]

It proved to be exactly that. Before a decent sized crowd, both teams played with the commitment and passion you would expect in a Border derby match. Donald Grieve for Jed and Kevin Utters ...
