Aberdeen Grammar SFP 51 Melrose 18

Moray Low opened the scoring nine minutes into Melrose's last BT Premiership match of the season by crashing over for a try converted by Keith Oddie. Callum Dall put Melrose on the scoresheet with a penalty at 13 minutes, but Grammar increased their lead three minutes later with a Craig Bartlett try. Dall kicked his second penalty at 24 minutes, but, once again, the Grammar riposte was swift, Colin Philips scoring his first try two minutes later. Philips second try came at 33 minutes, this one converted by Oddie. At 36 minutes Jamie Murray took advantage of slack defending by the home team scoring a try converted by Dall. Oddie kicked a penalty at 39 minutes and, just on the interval, Murray repeated his defence breaking trick to score his second try.
Half time - Aberdeen GSFP 27 Melrose 18
Ten minutes into the second half Oddie helped himself to a try which he, himself, converted, and for the next twenty minutes it was all one-way traffic with Philips "hat trick" try and further tries by Euan Campbell and Luke Parsons, the last being converted by Oddie.
