J7 RED TIGERS
They scrapped in for a win. Started well but fell of the pace in the first half by the quick play from Northcote catching them napping. Second half sore a big turn around with three turnovers from excellent ripping and scoring tries of those opportunities, was a gutsy play by the team proud of them all.
