A team is measured just as much after defeat as it is in victory and The Northampton Old Scouts bounced back from last weeks disappointment with a fine win at Peterborough.
The game tested the squads depth with a number of players unavailable or injured, but the group adapted and gave a gusty, hard fought 5 point win.
You cant score in the backs without hard graft from your forwards, but the Scouts backs were definitely the difference. In particular strong running from Joey Patrick.
The win meant Scouts leapfrog Market Harborough in to second and go in to a week off to refresh for a tough game against Kettering on the 30th.
Man of the Match = Joey Patrick,
