www.islandstats.comn can report that Corrie Cross was not part of the Worcester Valkyries that picked up two bonus points in their Tyrrells Premier 15s opener but fell to a narrow 27-24 defeat to Darlington Mowden Park Sharks at Northern Echo Arena.
Valkyries bagged four tries for a bonus point, something they failed to do in the whole of last season, as Zoe Bennion, Thea Thompson, Nat English and Carys Cox crossed the whitewash.
However, Darlington Mowden Park also scored four tries through Hannah Morton, Heather Kerr, Lisa Thomson and Katherine Hobson and Fiona Dewar’s penalty proved the difference for Sharks, despite an impressive showing for Roy Davies’ Valkyries.
