A great day for the Senior Sharks visiting Warnervale. For once the close finishes went our way, with all 3 mens games being sealed right on the bell. The Womens 7s won their first game 17-7 (tries to Taylah Welsh, Renee Staben & Rachael Elcoate who also kicked the conversion) and just missed out in the second game 12-14. (2 tries to Taylah Welsh and a conversion to Rachael Elcoate. On the day 1pt Zali Seisun & Renee Staben, 2pts Jessie Jensen, 3pts Rachael Elcoate with Taylah Welsh the players player. In the u19s I am told that Reece Piepers landed a penalty after full time, from the sideline, across a gale to wrap up a 24-22 win. Tries to Sebastian Eguia, Ben Francis & Solomon Shepherd with Reece Piepers converting 2 to go with the penalty, Reece Jacobs kicked the other conversion. 1pt Michael Houssenloge, 2pts the entire front row of Henry Cumming, Sebastian Eguia & Tom Waterhouse, 3pts Matt Peebles with Reece Piepers voted players player. 2nds also a cliffhanger with a converted try right on full time from a kickoff sealing the 29-21 win. 2tries each to the Matts, Matthew Ritchie & Matt Kiddle with Will Byrne kicking 3 conversions and a penalty. 1pt Matthew Ritchie, 2pts Matt Kiddle & Blake Jacob, 3pts Mitchell Bartholomew Beames and players player Matt Kiddle. I arrived at Woongarrah just as Warnervale opened the scoring in first grade for a 7-0 lead, strong play for the rest of the half saw us leading 20-14 at the break. It got much harder to score in the second half and after two unconverted tries our opponents had a 24-20 lead with not long to go. The Sharks stayed calm and in control and on the final play of the game Matt Anderson crashed over for the winner. Other tries to Jobe Graham and Dylan Cadogan who also converted all 3 (from sidelines!) and kicked a penalty and a drop goal. 1pt Shaun Townsend, 2pts to Kye Blair who has had such a good season I did not even realise it was his first start in Firsts. Like all of our u19s who have been stepping up to cover our long injury list, he was right at home - strong and confident in all his work. 3pts to a man who is playing like he was 10 years younger Emile Thomas. Players player Dylan Cadogan in another masterful performance (half this prize to incredible Club Physio Stan Priestley for his repair work in getting Dylan on the field!). Next week has Seniors at home to Gosford, with it also being Ladies Day - and team photo day for u19s and Womens teams. Cheers Boys & Girls
