Eagle 12 Oldershaw 18
EAGLE could not hold on for a victory when they fell to Oldershaw, directly above them in South Lancs/Cheshire Division Two.
The hosts made a perfect start at Thornton Road when skipper Simon Counsell scored after good work from the forwards.
Ben Mercer then crashed over for a dominant Eagle, Jay Jackson converting, but that was as good as it got.
Oldershaw’s second-half revival took the game away from Eagle, who travel to Ruskin Park on Saturday, kick off 2.15pm.
