Jed were left deflated after the final whistle out scoring West by 5 tries to 4, Jed’s penalty count cost them dear giving away over 20 penalties against West who only conceded 5, strangely it was a West player that was yellow carded for consistent infringements.
Jed secured a four try bonus point during the first half, with tries coming from Kevin Aitchison after 12 minutes then quickly followed by David Gobby and Gregor Young, the four try bonus point was secured by Darren Gillespie’s try on forty minutes three of these tries were converted by Ewan Scott to take the half time score to 26-10 with Jed firmly in control.
Shortly after the break West scored a converted try, this was quickly followed by Jed last try by Neil Cook, Jed started to crumble after this with penalty decisions keeping them on the back foot, West scored two converted tries to make the score level with ten minutes to go, two penalties were converted by West during the last ten minutes to take the game agonisingly away from Jed, a red card to captain Cook in the 79th minute just added to Jed’s frustrations, Jed collected two bonus points from the game which many teams will struggle to find visiting Burnbrae this season.
