A crazy day in Division 2.
Lindfield beat Pats by 1 - Lindfields young had a red hot go. I hate to take away from them, but they seemed to pull some real lucky tries out (Intercept, a long field kick that bounced a crazy direction and their winger runs through) but I can not fault their enthusiasm. We came home really strong and another five minutes would have taken the points. Great game and atmosphere.
Hunters Hill over Epping easy - It looks like tough days at Epping who lost all grades again and have won just 1 game in any grade this year. They sit outright last in three grades. Hunters went to an easy lead and must have taken the foot off the accelerator in 1sts. Epping looked a little lost and its hard to see where a win comes from for them.
Barker over UNSW - I have not watched this, but a close game. I said last week UNSW looked pretty poor and only won because they played a pretty hopeless Epping. Barker were thrashed by Hunters (will not be the only ones). They may have had more players back so well done to Barker.
Newport over Hills - I said last week Newport were brave and deserved to be closer to Pats. It was suggested here they would have 20 more players back and it showed. A brilliant game of footy with what looked the whole of the northern beaches there. In the final play Newport kicked long, isolated the Hills winger who turned it over and they drew a penalty to steal it after the siren.
