In incredibly wet conditions, Cranbrook hosted a full day of fixtures against St Stanislaus from Bathurst.

However, our boys enjoyed themselves immensely as well as performing very well on the pitch.

  • Player of the Day: Junior Teams (13s, 14s & 15s)- Ben Barretto (15A)
  • Player of the Day: Senior Teams (16s & Opens)-  Cameron McKenzie (1st XV)
  • Rugby All Rounder of the Day (for effort/attitude on and off the field): Charlie Swain (3rd XV)
  • Team of the Day- 14As

Under the enthusiastic tutelage of old boys Mr Tom Greig & Mr Oliver Lamens the 14As recorded a rousing 17-0 win on rain soaked Dangar and are the Team of the Day.

Lawson Gill and Cody Ogg were a formidable combination in the midfield as highlighted by their resolute defence and strong running. Hooker, Matthew Morris was once again a strong contributor both at the set piece and in general play while Tom Dangar and Jonathan Yetton marshalled strongly from halves. Theo Wilson was a tower of strength at the back of the scrum.

Special mention to the 3rd XV.

The 3rd XV fixture saw a tradesman like victory to the tune of 22 nil. Front rower, Max Fogarty was in the thick of the action in the forwards again, scoring a double and demanding a check of the record books of Cranbrook’s top try scorers of all time! Lock Jamie Toll was a tackling machine and superb at the breakdown while Finn Scott enjoyed lots of space on the edge. So too, Tim Molnar was impressive as he displayed an intelligent kicking game to pin the opposition all afternoon.

Our program takes a break for the long weekend before we take on Knox at home to start the CAS competition..
