WEYMOUTH DOONAN WILDCATS 61 ~ SITTINGBOURNE CRUSADERS 31
WEYMOUTH Doonan Wildcats made a huge statement on Saturday night by hammering the Sittingbourne Crusaders at the Wessex Stadium. After last Monday's frustrating 48-45 defeat at Scunthorpe, when mechanical gremlins and refereeing decisions failed to go their way, the pressure was on the hosts to give their campaign a much needed kick-start and they did not disappoint in front of a jubilant home crowd. Dicken's side have been lauded as potential title challengers and on this showing it was clear to see why as a fairly strong Sittingbourne line up were simply brushed aside.

CRUSADER MISSION
By Adam Summers, Dorset Echo ~ Saturday 10th May 2008
AUSTRALIAN sensation Jay Herne is confident the Weymouth Doonan Wildcats can kick-start their Conference League campaign with victory tonight over the Sitting-bourne Crusaders at the Wessex Stadium (7.15pm). The Wildcats lost their opening league fixture at the Scunthorpe Saints on Monday by just three points in a meeting that saw Herne excluded in the last-heat decider for a fall on the first bend. The Poole Pirates asset is now targeting a return to glory against the Crusaders, which he hopes will provide the catalyst for a title charge.
