Magic Weekend is arguably the best round of the Super League’s regular season when every team and their followers make their way to one neutral ground and as last year Peterlee Pumas attended the event on the first day.

Twenty plus Pumas made the three and a half hour journey up to Edinburgh to watch eight of the fourteen Super League teams face off against each other in at Murrayfield.

A great day was had by all even though the day’s weather was much chillier than the previous years.

The Pumas had a chance to not only watch some of their sporting heroes on the field of play but also watch them at much closer quarters on the training pitch prior to the kick off of each game.

The Engage Super League fan zone also provided plenty of entertainment and fun to the Pumas who ventured into it.  Rugby League related side shows like inflatable bungee try scoring, pass targets and tackle bag smashing were there to be enjoyed.

A couple of the younger Pumas even managed to get a photograph with current Leigh Centurions player and The Super League Show regular Robbie Paul.

Special mention must go to nine year old Declan Taylor who managed an arduous but fun task of meeting every single Super League club mascot on the day.

A fine day saw both teams have to aclimatise to the heat which saw a water break called half way through the first half.

Peterlee got things going straight away with a good move that put loose forward Alex Ruff in for the first try in the 1st minute.  3 minutes later the pumas attacked again and shifted the ball wide to Put wing James cronin in the corner, Joe Wyman converted.  Pumas man of the match George manser playing in the centers this week crossed on the 8th minute with Wyman adding the extras.  Scrum half Jack adamson got rewared for another fine performance with one of his many jinking runs that caused confusion in the defence a short while later as he took the ball from the srum.  Hookder Stephen Molyneaux crossed after 18 minutes and Wyman added 2 more points and the pumas started to ring the changes in the line up.  Wallsend struck back with a well worked try taking advantage of loose defence at the ruck  but Fullback Jamie Keen hit straight back in the final minute of the half with Wyman adding the extras to make it 32-4 to the Visiting Pumas.

Wallsend Started the second half the better with a well worked try out wide in the 35th minute but center Danny Wilson hit back again for the Pumas with a long run in and Jack Adamson took over the kicking duties to add the 2.  Wallsend got another try which was converted but the Pumas hit back with Alex Ruffs 2nd and George manswer also got his brace which Wyman now back on converted.

Final Score Wallsend Eagles 14 Peterlee Pumas 48.
