Dragons fought hard

U8 Match Report by team manager Jero Mansell

The Eumundi Dragons U8’s had a hard fought game on Saturday against a strong Noosa Dolphins side. The lead see-sawed between both teams with strong running and great support play resulting in a number of tries. The Dragons team were committed with every player doing really well, working hard on defence executing some great tackles. Hunter and Finn made some strong tackles with great running from Jack, Zac and Tristan. Henry and CJ provided good impetus on attack, supporting the ball. Quill produced a player of the day performance with a well rounded effort, great tackling and running with the ball. Great work U8’s.

U11 Match Report by team manager Pamela Campbell Jones

A deceptively cool morning as the Dragons met the Noosa Fins at Kawana on Saturday, but the Fins were running super-hot right from the start. The Dragons had little possession of the ball in the first half and worked hard for the whole half.

The second half saw the Dragons come back on with renewed vigour and it was a much more even game, both in possession and the score line.

The Dragons would like to thank Samuel, Keanu, Seamus, Tige, Lachlan and Zeb from Brothers who joined the Dragons for the game and gave it their all.

The Best Team Mate was awarded to Jett Herbert, who was all over the field, not only scoring tries but making plenty of impressive tackles as well.

Well done Dragons – you are always learning and improving.
