Match Report

Ire Wheelchair
Wales then opened their account with a 96-16 win over Ireland.

The Irish scored with the first set of the game through a Peter Johnson try that he converted himself, but from then on Wales took charge.

Andrew Higgins, who ended up with two tries and seven goals, got the scoring off to a start, followed by a Stuart Williams first half hat trick as Wales scored ten tries and nine conversions before the interval.

Early in the second half was once again all one way as Wales continued scoring tries for fun, Williams adding two more to his try tally.

Jamie Reynolds became the second youngest Wales Wheelchair international, and was also part of the first Wales father and son to play international rugby league at the same time, with his father Jason Reynolds.

Jodie Boyd-Ward also made her Welsh debut and got on the score sheet with a brace of tries.

Lucie Roberts, Alan Caron and Scott Trigg-Turner also added two tries each with Harry Jones and Gary Preece grounding once. Mark Williams knocked over seven goals.

Johnston added another try and goal for Ireland with Toby Burton-Carter also crossing.
