Campbell Player of the Round

7th March 2010


Campbell Player of the Round  asset 1 Batley Bulldogs full-back Johnny Campbell (pictured) has been awarded Northern Rail Cup’s Player of the Round after his scintillating display in the 46-10 victory over Swinton Lions.

Campbell scored a crucial try in the 27th minute to give the Bulldogs a 14-4 lead a half-time before rounding off an impressive performance with a 90-yard try which set the home crowd alight.

The winger turned full-back gave Batley breathing space at half-time making his way past several Swinton defenders before touching down in the corner to give the Bulldogs a 10-point lead at the interval.

Campbell’s second try of the game rounded off what was a magnificent individual display from the 22-year old.
Commenting on the award, Bulldogs General Manager Paul Harrison said: "We've been delighted with Johnny's performances in the Northern Rail Cup. He has grabbed the opportunity at full-back with both hands and has gone from strength to strength"
