[QUOTE="RoyalBlueStuey, post: 118196"] [i]Lancashire 27-17 Yorkshire For the third year in succession the only thing that stood between Yorkshire and a visit to Twickenham was the "Old Enemy" Lancashire. To be brutally honest on this occasion Lancashire well deserved their win, although the fact that Yorkshire had to make ten changes to the published team cannot have helped their cause. Lancashire came out all guns blazing against a Yorkshire side that looked overwhelmed by the occasion and found themselves 27-3 down at half time. Their only point coming from a Tom Rhodes penalty. The second half did at least see Yorkshire restore some respectability to the scoreline as they managed fourteen unanswered points including tries from debutant Leeds Tykes centre Luther Burrell and Hull Ionians back-rower Richard Wigham. In the end, and although they had the upper hand, time ran out for the Tykes and it is Lancashire who will compete for the inaugural Bill Beaumont Cup against Devon.[/i] Wohoooooo! Same final as last year. Don't know who's competing in the other finals. [/QUOTE]
