Penrith squared up against a full strength Carlisle squad only to find themselves on the back foot from the word go!
Carlisle's controlled aggression, in both the loose and tackle areas, severely dented Penrith's confidence and ultimately their desire to compete, soon resulting in the score ticking over in Carlisle's favour. Ollie Larkins countered with some strong running to deliver a couple of tries and Zak Dunn, zipped one in down the wing, with Lewis converting 2:3 but unfortunately these were not enough to change the mindset or lift their spirits.
Round 3 later in the year...much to work on.
