Surprise choice Colin Gregor proved he was a risk worth taking for the Warriors by securing 20 points for his side. The Borders started the strongest but were unable finish off what looked like a promising try attempt, surrendering possession at last moment. The Warriors used this to their advantage and managed to get points on the board early. Refusing to give up The Borders managed to hold the Warriors in their 22 area for a while in the second half. Unfortunately they couldn’t follow through their initial build up work allowing the Warriors to stroll to victory.
