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.

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.

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.
