Bury kicked off their final home league match in glorious conditions at the GK IPA Haberden.
Raiders took the ball and proceeded to hang onto it for numerous phases until they turned the ball over on Bury's try line. Matt Bursey made a huge break from the resultant scrum and passed to the excellent George Loose to open the scoring, Ben Penfold converted.

Bury 7-0 Raiders.

Loose returned the compliment to put his skipper Matt Bursey in under the posts, and Penfold converted.

Bury 14-0 Raiders.

Bury looked to play at pace with Loose and Bourne at the centre of all that was good. Bourne broke cleverly and Kodie Drury-Hawkins finished, Penfold converted.

Raiders hit back with a deserved try by Roberts after some clever play, Ciaran McGann converted.

Bury 21-7 Raiders.

Bury succumbed to a string of penalties and Raiders profited with a catch and drive try by Thomas Cellam, Mc Gann converted.

The match fell a bit flat but was reignited with Bursey scoring his second try, and Hall converted.

Christie replied immediately for Bury and Hall converted.

Bury 49-24 Raiders.

Bury's discipline began to let them down and referee Peter Caunt needed some stern words. A positive response resulted in a delightful try for the housewives' favourite Will Affleck on his 150th cap, Bursey converted.

Bury 56-24 Raiders

That proved to be the final score.

Full-time Bury 56-24 Raiders

Bury will be pleased to end their home campaign on such a positive note and reward their faithful fans with a clinical and for the most part a disciplined performance.
Guernsey will probably not be satisfied with one bonus point and will rue some soft turnovers that were ruthlessly punished.
