Under-15s, Hawkesbury Valley 50 def Hills-Drummyone 15.
It was a welcome change of form for the under-15's today, who played host to Hills-Drummoyne at home and finished the match with a convincing win of 50 -15.
Tries this week going to Brad. E (3) Dylan. V (2) Josh. M (1) Tyson. F (1) and Lewis M (1) with conversions going to Brad. E (3) Lewis M (1) and Ben G (1).
Beast of the week honors going to Brad E who thoroughly deserved the award this week with dominate attacking all game and strong leadership of the backline.
The boys maintained a strong presence on the field the entire match with solid runs from forwards Matt W and Dennis E and a bustling run from Tyson. F to get over the line but it was the backline that stole the show today.
With several weeks of focused training the backline really hit the mark today with outstanding plays from Brad E, Dylan V, Josh M, Jackson H and Lewis M.
A demonstration of teamwork and outstanding passing saw the backs enjoy plenty of time over the opposition's try line.
Overall, all the boys displayed moments of brilliance today which is directly reflected by the score line.
A truly entertaining game and a pleasure to watch, we will look to see where the cards fall this week after regrading. Congratulations gentleman.

Under-13s, Forest Green 45 def Hawkesbury Valley 24.
The best thing from the game was that all players stepped up to their full potential.
It was great to see some big hit ups from Jake and Logan and the first ever try in a club game from Will from a rolling maul.
Despite injury, Louis was attacking strongly with Riley and Conor showing good support play to make metres out wide.
Jackson and Jack powered through forests defense all game giving Aidan, Lachlan and Zac room to move.
A much more alert bunch of boys in the second half saw two trys to Jack from turn overs created by Jacobs dominance at the ruck which saw us close the game but time was not in our favour, and time ran out before we could catch them.
A great game by all players its looking like a good season ahead.
