Under 12s Round 8 v Sawtell.
The first half was a very tight arm wrestle with Bowra having probably the best of field position most of the way through the half. But to Sawtell's credit they defended very well and kept turning up and holding Bowra out time and time again. This defence lead to the first try being scored by a good run from Sawtell. So Bowra had to try and make the most of some of the field position they were getting from some solid defence but regular mistakes would see them keep turning the ball over. Finally just before half time Bowra were in for their first try of the day with another great run by Taejarn Swan putting it down next to the posts. The conversion was missed so at halftime Bowra were behind 6 - 4.
Sawtell again in the second half showed that they have improved quite a lot from our first round game defending very strongly. But with some good ball control it would be Bowra to score the first try to Players Player Jordan Welsh who had run the ball strongly all game. Conversion was guided through the posts from out wide by Josh Willer. Bowra in front 10 - 6. Not long after that try Lachlan Johnson was in under the posts after beating a couple of defenders and racing 40 metres. This was also converted this time by Brody Howle. So with the cow bell ringing to bring full time to the game Bowra would run out winners 16 - 6.
