Tough day at the office for the Sharks, 1sts got off to a great start with the opening try, and then quickly were down 5-7 after an intercept. A long range try to the hosts after an error and at half time we were down 5-14. Another turnover try from when we had been deep in attack, with a penalty goal and at 5-22 it wasn't looking good. But the boys dug in and scored a couple of well worked tries to get it back to 15-22 with not long to go. More quality play had us deep in attack and looking like squaring the match when another slip up gave them possession and another score from inside their own 22 to wrap up the match 15-27 right on full time. Most of the time our defence had been sensational, but just couldn't stop their destructive counter attack. Jack Booker had a huge game back in the forwards and took the 3pts, players player and scored a try. Matt Anderson 2pts and a try, the other try to Daniel Aguirre-Acevedo. 1pt to Pete Steele and to Jake McPhie - Jake was heroic in the front row. He has a shoulder injury, but when he found out that Luke Sheridan would be unavailable he immediately volunteered to take his place, regardless of the pain that he knew would result. Huge effort from a man in his first year at the Club.
2nds opened the scoring in their match with a penalty goal but unfortunately that was the extent of their scoring. Ourimbah showed why they are comp leaders and kept finding their way to the line to take the match 3-31. A big welcome back to the Sharks for Tom Russell, who kicked the penalty and was as good as ever in at half back - even getting a run in 1s later in the day. 3pts and players player to Shaun Thompson, 2pts Jesse Pavlovich, 1pt Mick Critter Arnold.
The thirsty thirds continued on their winning way with a bonus point win 29-10, big Eddie Williams providing some real excitement when he set off on a couple of destructive runs to set up and score tries. Tod Wadey shows his wide skill set with some line out throwing. Tries to Stephen Lamb (again!) who also got voted players player, Matt Norman, Eddie Williams & Tyler Mcmanus. Luke McPhie converted 3 and kicked a penalty. 2pts to Matt Norman and 1pt Luke McPhie.
The u19s started slowly and didn't really get into their game until the 2nd half, when it was too late to change the result, brave effort though and only just missed a 4try bonus point, going down 17-40. Tries to Josh Davies, Rhys Stratton & Tyler McManus, Sam Evans kicked a conversion. 3pts to Rhys Stratton, 2 pts and players player to Thomas Starkey, 1pt to Josh Davies And Ethan Fullagar.
The u17s kicked a late penalty to continue their great run of victories over teams ahead of them on the ladder with an 11-10 win over Terrigal. u16s put up a good showing against the comp leaders though couldn't match them on the scoreboard.
Other Junior games had mixed results: the u15s Barbarians going down to gosford, the u14s getting pipped 19-22 by Ourimbah, 13s defeated Terrigal in a close one 10-7, 12s ran into the comp leaders Ourimbah having a good day and finished without the win. u11s were winners 34-10 over Ourimbah and the u10s had to travel up to Warnervale and returned without a win but a lot of pride in their effort. We say it every week, the u7, u8s & u9s are fantastic games to watch, the skill levels of these young Sharks is just wonderful, and the games are always entertaining. Lots of fun had by all and lots of proud parents on the sidelines.
Next week Seniors have a the bye and most Juniors are at heazlett. Also the weekend of the 40th celebrations, the dinner booking have been great, make sure you get your payments to Deborah Morris this week. Don't forget the Club picnic day on the Sunday, a chance for all the family to have some fun
Cheers Boys!!
