It certainly wasn’t the way that outgoing coach and captain Grev Bray and Alex Hough wanted things to end, but until that point Boston had put in a spirited performance.
At this stage Boston had scored two tries to Worksop’s four.
The first, from winger Jaron Cowern, saw him receiving a well-timed pass from Hough and outpace the opposition.

The try was converted by Matthew Bray.
