Great day for the Fins

NOOSA DOLPHINS
Under 7 Noosa Fins 65 def Matthew Flinders 50
THE ground was wet but the sun was out and the boys all showed their determination with great defending, tagging and running. Kase was on fine form from the outset, Jake kept the pressure on the opposition and multiple tries were had by Myles, Lachie and Rory. Jackson and Harry made it over for one try each, as did Uli with a monster five tries. Player of the Match was awarded to Jake McCready.
Under 8 Noosa Dolphins 55 def University 30
This week the Under 8 Dolphins had their most challenging game of the season as they took on the undefeated Sunshine Coast Uni team. The Dolphins put up a courageous effort with Levi “Lucky“ Cairns scoring six tries, Finlay getting three and Rohan running in two. Declan and Ed stepped up their defence with some strong tackling. The two girls on the team, Ocean and Hope, showed great courage and teamwork. No individual was singled out with the entire team named Players of the Match.
Under 8 Noosa Fins 65 def St Andrews 20
With only six boys available this week the Fins had to adopt guerrilla tactics against the army of players available to St Andrews on the soggy Flinders paddock. George White had a cracker of a game, dominating once again in the rucks and running in a massive eight tries, Rory McIntyre excelled with crunching tackles all match and found time to run in three wonderful tries. Mr Crow and Harry Marlow scored a try a piece whilst Gus Anderson and Jaxon Peermamode gave their all throughout. A very solid determined performance from this great bunch of lads. Player of the Match was awarded to George White.
Under 10 Noosa Fins 17 def Grammar Rugby 10
First gamer Jacob did really well to hold position, making good tackles and had a good run going forward. Welcome to Jacob and family. Captain Louie put in his usual 100 per cent making huge tackles and was there to score a try off the great work by the Saatchi and Mack. Louie kicked well and copped a boot in the face to proudly show off a neat bruised inner lip shaped showing a perfectly indent of a boot sprig mark.
Player of the Match was awarded to scrum half Mack.
Under 11 Noosa Fins 99 def Maleny 0
The Fins piled on the points this week with a great display of running rugby. The result was built from great ball retention and solid teamwork that allowed the backs to race in the tries. Andrew showed scorching pace to run in five tries and Sam Lambert notched up twelve conversions. Maleny did their jersey proud – giving 100 per cent all day. They troubled the Fins in the set piece, beating the boys in the scrum. The Maleny boys are a credit to their team, their families and the club. Tries to Andrew (5), Joseph (4), Fynn (3), Reggie (2) and Jackson (1).
Under 11 Maroochydore 60 def Noosa Reds 7
It was a difficult game this week for the boys in the Reds team. Maroochydore turned up ready to avenge the loss to the Fins the week before. The Swans superior breakdown commitment and structure led them to victory. We are sure the boys will take the loss in their stride and will be back bigger and better next match.
Under 12 Noosa Reds 41 def Eumundi 7
The boys were on their game right from the kick off and scored a couple of early tries.Eumundi hit back and pounded the Noosa line but some great defence kept them out. Tries were scored by Max (4), Flynn (1) and Patrick (2), with Sabyr making six from seven conversions.
Under 13 Malaney 17 def Noosa Dolphins 12
Great effort again with some very good attacking which sadly didn’t end in points. The boys are really playing like a team. They did well against a good Malaney team. Player of the Match was awarded to Tim Mitchell.
