What a fabulous day of Rugby. After an early morning start at 4.00am due to an errant fire alarm at the hotel, we made our way to Rawson Oval. Although the brains trust were worse for wear due to a lack of sleep, well thats what they said, the boys from Mossman and Brothers put on a Rugby spectacle. Brothers got an early jump in the points in the first game but Mossman hit back hard in the second game to take the lead. Brothers pulled it back and only two points separated the teams at the start of the final game. Brothers got the jump early and put on a healthy edge, but Mossman came back strongly to close out the shield by one point at full time! What a spectacular finish to a fabulous tournament.
I had great time and would like to thank the Club Presidents, Committee members, Tour Organisers, billet families, and all the other friends of Rugby that put so much effort to bring this wonderful tour together. It was a really well organised event and we made many new friends while enjoying a lot of great Rugby. I am very much looking forward to Mossman's return visit to Brothers next year.
Cheers,
Shane.
