Under 12's Round 4 Match Report

Round 4 v Woolgoolga
This was the grandfinal rematch from last year. The boys were ready to rip in from the kick off, making easy metres up the field with some great runs from Jordan Welsh, Brayth Ledger and Taejarn Swan. The first try of the day went to Josh Willer with another sneaky dive over from dummy half after a great run from Captain Josh Stuart, this was converted to get Bowra away to a great start. Again as they have done for the first 3 games defence was sensational not letting Woopi get a chance of making any ground. It wasn't long before Liam Cuffe was in for his first try of the game, from making a break out wide and then racing 70 metres to score under the posts. Soon after another great set in defence, Jack Clevesley saw a shortage of players down the blind side which he took advantage of beating the fullback to score in the corner. This try wasn't converted so at half time Bowra lead 16 - 0.
The second half started much the same as the first with super defence giving Woopi no field position to do anything. Bowra were first to score with Players player this week Brayden Luffman coming up with a great try from chasing hard on his own kick which he got the perfect bounce to race 50 metres to score. After this it wasn't long before we were on the attack again, the boys saw that they had an over lap out wide and some quick hands and a perfectly timed and thrown cut out ball from Taejarn Swan saw Liam Cuffe cross for his second of the day. Both second half tries were convert and the score was 28 - 0. I think the boys thought the job was done and this lead to some lazy defence in the last 5 minutes so Woopi got in for a couple of late trys to take the final score to 28 - 14. This was again another pleasing result for the hard work they are putting in at training each week.
