Two wins today.
Mathews had a pretty comfortable win.
Tex Hoy looks to be a great prospect. He scored a try with a great dummy that i bought way up in the stands before strolling over untouched, and he set up a few others. I'd say he was the best playmaker in the side playing fullback. He also kicked 3 or 4 from the sidelines and his kickoffs were high and long and were knocked on about 3 times.
In Ball, we looked great in the first half, scoring 4 tries with O'Hagan kicking 4 goals, a couple from the sideline. Our forwards looked well on top and I think Kurtis Dark scored 3 of our 4 tries. O'Hagan and Starling were both doing as they pleased.
In the second half the Roosters started spreading the ball wide and their left side attack strolled through our right defence to score try after try. 3 came within 5 minutes at one stage.
In the end it was 4 tries all and the Roosters just missed scoring by inches right on the bell, so we ran out lucky 24-20 winners.
O'Hagan picked up what looked like a rib injury in the second half. He stayed on the field but did little, and I think Starling went to halfback and we missed his dummy half work too.
