For once we feel it is right to open our article, on the summary of the Skorpions' latest match, starting from their opponents. Regardless of the result, the Bologna Warriors, who arrived at Franco Ossola with less than thirty players and with the heavy defection of imports, honored the match with intensity, demonstrating a strong attachment to the shirt, as well as the usual sportsmanship. As they say on these occasions: chapeau. The second topic we want to cover is what is inappropriately indicated with the definition of backup or reserve. Yesterday the Varese "reserves" put on a show, demonstrating how many valuable athletes are available to the grey-red roster. Starting from Riccardo Crosta and his innate ability to run which produced the spectacular touchdown of 44 to 0, a result that later became definitive, passing through the goals of Luca Tovaglieri, employed from the first minute and those of Sergio Montalbetti to reach the last moments of the game in which Filippo Marelli made his debut in the role of quarter back, all gave a fruitful contribution to the cause. For the rest, the Skorpions played the usual game, showcasing the brilliant aerial game of the Griffin brothers, for Maclaine there were three tries, the enthralling runs of Davide Silvestri, for him too the statistics speak of a touchdown, the receptions of Roberto Zanovello (1 TD) and the usual defense, scoring with a safety. The rest is done by Stefano Granelli's foot, perfect yesterday too with six seals on as many conversion attempts and the rest of the team where everyone plays their part perfectly. If the saying that appetite comes with eating is true, the Skorpions, after having won seven consecutive games and having mathematically conquered first place, the ideal springboard for the play offs, now have the historic possibility of achieving the first perfect season in the top division , Rhinos, next Sunday, permitting.
