Congratulation to Luke Wiseman on his first game of Senior Rugby after playing in our u16s a couple of years ago. Then on to the big game and the Sharks opened up playing fast precision Rugby. The score quickly got out to 21-0 as we dominated all aspects of the game. Hornsby did well to keep it at that as score as many other opportunities were help up over the line. Then a few errors from us and their sharp counter attack replied to punish each one and it was 21-24 and them feeling confident.
