In a special ANZAC day Shute Shield fixture, Randwick went down 17 -27 to Eastern Suburbs at Coogee oval.
However, with the five other Round 4 matches taking place on Saturday, there will be plenty more rugby action over the weekend, with Eastwood coming off the back of a big win last week to take on Manly in the ABC TV game of the week at 3pm at Manly Oval.
Also Sydney University will host Warringah, Southern Districts are at home to Penrith, Northern Suburbs take on Gordon at North Sydney and Western Suburbs play a buoyant Parramatta at Concord Oval.
As always the 2013 competition will be broadcast live on ABC1 throughout NSW and the ACT on Saturdays from 3pm. Interstate viewers can watch a full replay of each week’s Shute Shield game at 3.30am on Tuesday mornings on ABC1 nationally and rugby fans everywhere can catch all the action online at anytime on ABC iView.
