Well a mirror image to last week with just 2s and 5s getting up in comfortable wins with 1s going down in a tight one, 3s hammered and 4s fighting but not good enough. 2nd grade played the perfect game against the higher placed Saints and went about their performance in an encouraging display that augurs well for the New Year. 5th grade were up against the undefeated leaders but...Read More
We went into this round needing a boost after a few indifferent weeks. Up against likely CC wooden spooners, Eastern Suburbs, we were wanting 5 from 5 without a doubt.

We got away with just 1sts and 2nds with 3s giving it a shot but not scoring enough, 4s bowling and fielding like champions but batting very poorly and 5s not...Read More

We climbed a bit up the CC ladder but with a good week against Randwick Petersham next weekend we will get in amongst the top 10.4 Pines Brewery Player of the Week – Ben...Read More

Manly Oval was the place to be on Sunday with over 360 runs scored in the T20 QF against...Read More
