Ilkley weren’t the free-flowing side we have seen over the last few years, but they were still too much for Driffield on a bad day.
At 10-17 down at half time, it still didn’t feel like Driffield were in the game. However, Driffield took the few chances they had in the second half and some would think them lucky to score the 22 points – two late tries made the score line more respectable.
