Saturday 3 May 2025<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After a slow start in Term 1 with rain once again playing havoc, the sun was out on Saturday across Northbridge and Knox ovals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some notable games around the grounds included the Fourth XV having a good win against Sydney Boys High First XV and all our 13\u2019s, 14\u2019s and 15\u2019s teams defeating Knox. Great start, men. Our 16A\u2019s went down on the bell at the Knox #1 oval, but it was an even game in which we had our chances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our GPS Competition teams continue to prepare well for the season. The Third XV and Second XV had narrow wins against Knox \u2013 always tough games in preparation for the season ahead. These teams are travelling well and forming strong, cohesive patterns in their play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The First XV came out of the blocks slowly and allowed three early tries. After an excellent tackle from a re-start, the newly appointed Captain of Rugby, Charlie Francis<\/strong>, ignited the team, and Oscar d\u2019Almeida<\/strong> stole a ball to race away for Shore\u2019s first try. Shore got back into the game and brought the score to 19-19 at half time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The second half started like the first and saw Knox record first points and then go in again to take the lead to 31-19. Shore, however, fought back and brought the game to 31-26 as both teams began to tire. Shore had the running towards the end of the game, and it looked like our faster, smaller pack would run around the larger Knox pack, but Knox held firm, scoring a last-minute try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
