"It was always going to be a tough test for us, it is nice to get that first point on the board."

There first goal of the season was a fine volley by John Rooney that gave the Lions the lead, Lockwood said

"We have worked on a few things to see if we can get an edge from it, this was a great goal, it took guts for him to try it."
