Yessss we did it. 19 - 0 over Bega. The Redbacks booked themselves into the grand final this Saturday at 3pm at Broulee. In order to do this they had to overcome a very committed team from Bega. (Well done Bega, great season.)

Asd we knew Bega were going to throw everything they had at us in the forwards. All we had to do was weather the storm and give the backs quality ball. Easier said than done.

The forwards battle was immense and Braidwood's tackling was the best it's been all year (Seamus, take a bow.)

After soaking up the pressure, Hacker was able to release the backs with ball-on-a-string Brendan setting up breathtaking moves with Dicko, Nads and Craig running in two superb tries.

The second half started with the same intensity, then Redbacks started dropping. Nick, Dan, Hacker injured, Tim and Aaron "rested", and we were down to thriteen players.

A huge wrap to Nurmi and Nathan being thrown into the 'lions den' of the pack and more than cquitting themselves.

It became a matter of pride, the more setbacks we had the more we were determined not to let s score in. Willed on by a huge crowd we got there.

Thankyou to our supporters. We have two coaches (24 seaters) going down to the final. Places will go quickly so contact the Royal Mail. We need all the supporters we can so please come down to Broulee for a 3.00pm kickoff and cheer you team on to victory.

Points went to; 3 Haggis and Nick Roberts, 2 Brendan, Dicko, Adam, 1 Sam Lyons, Tim Moffit, players player Seamus. Remember presentation night is Saturday 8th September at Garan Vale. Call Steve on 4842 2027 for tickets.
