Robson Inury Puts Dampener on Rockets Celebrations
Young Shield 1st Rd 1st Leg
Rye House Rockets 62 Isle of Wight 30
The Rockets easily beat the Islanders for the third time this season at Hoddesdon to give themselves a great chance of progressing to the next round. Victory came at a price though as Stuart Robson was involved in a spectacular Heat 6 crash. Having missed the start Robson careered into the 3rd bend fence and was taken to hospital with a suspected broken arm. Chris Neath top scored on the night notching a 15 point maximum on his return from a back injury.
