Just before half time a kneck injury to Steelers Jonathan Harkness resulted in the game being abandoned. Jonathan was air lifted to Carlisle hospital were he was fortunately found to have no serious damage. At 26-0 up Whitehave had secured a bonus point, however the regulatery time had not lapsed and the game may have to be replayed. A number of the clubs U18s in the side were acquitting themselves well until the worrying incident however the long delay resulted in the game being abandoned.
Thanks to the Whitehaven contingent for expressing their concern.
