Spuds blown away by Hawks

10 May 12 | The Spuds were blown away when the Hawks flew out to lead 18-0 in the first six minutes of kick off. The Super Spuds actually did a great job to reel back the deficit to 26-24 and the defining point in the game was when Guyra grubbered the ball on the tryline and regathered and were certain to score when the referee gave Inverell the ball in a glaring mistake. Add on an astonishing 8-1 penalties and Guyra were continually on the back foot.

Busy weekend for Junior League

10 May 12 | Saturday saw Moree come to play at Guyra. Unfortunately Moree didn’t bring Under 8s, but the under 10s and Under 12s played their best. As most of you know Darrin and myself are President and Secretary and with no Under 16s it has been difficult following both Guyra and Armidale.
