Halifax Panthers delight home crowd with 28-0 shut-out of London Broncos
Heavy rain and driving wind made life difficult for both sides and the only score of the first half came on eight minutes when Ben Kavanagh latched onto Joe Keyes' kick to touch-down. Keyes' conversion gave Halifax a narrow 6-0 lead at the break.
The hosts remained patient in the second period but Cory Aston's try, goaled by Keyes, on the hour marked the start of a dominant period for Panthers.
