Stanley won the second annual Charity Challenge cup 28 points to 8, and were worth the win. Kieran Holt and Daniel Sowerby combined throughout the game and were both in scintillating form, with Kieran being awarded the Man of the Match by none other that Leeds Rhino Jay Pitts.

The pack all performed, led by Jonny Holmes, and top form Callum Sampson, with the ship's rudder Ben Cornell producing a masterclass.

Ben Hardaker ran very hard all game, as did the entire back line, with Dom Jones looking a fantastic fullback and really taking his game to the next level.

This is just the start that Roy and the coaches wanted, and the overall opinion was a very good early season run out.

The new boys also performed again, McGretton, Foster, and Donnegan, with Broom out wide all showing the levels of ability we demand in the Rangers.

The only blot was the early loss of star back rower Will Hudson to a sore back. Get well soon, because this player is going to be sensational.
