Strath lads got the win 68-19, although the score blew out 2btown came up to play and sure put the lads to work! Great to get the first home game ticked off, great crowd, lots of full tummy's and plenty of banter, just what Senior rugbys about ✔️
Thanks to the crowd for filling the hat the club will be making a donation to Glenn Sutton and Farm Strong of $250 💛💙
Player of Day - Campbell McCone

The hat will go round at rugby today, all money going to this great cause.
So bring some cash or otherwise follow the link and donate via the give a little if your in the position 💛💙

Prior to embarking on this 617km run, Glenn envisioned crossing the finish line at Emerson's Brewery late Saturday 🏁

However, 96 hours and counting of relentless running have taken a toll. An old injury resurfaced early on during the run, causing significant pain and slowing Glenn's pace to a hobble. Combined with physical exhaustion, Glenn is having to stop more frequently. But amidst the challenges, Glenn's crew have been outstanding, doing all the right things for his injury - strapping, icing, elevating, and providing pain meds. Yet, true to his unwavering determination, Glenn persists, pushing through the agony 💪🏼

Glenn won't be reaching Emerson's today as planned, and we can't predict his arrival time.
However, you can follow his tracking link for updates.

Once Glenn hits the 500km mark, we'll provide 10km countdowns on his Facebook and Instagram stories to keep you updated! ⏰📍

Big thanks to everyone for the support so far! Let's continue rallying behind Glenn and Farmstrong until he reaches that finish line. Let's keep it up! 🙌🏼

What a first game for the season, although the lads lost 27-19, they came out firing in the second half and definitely had Taieri on the back foot for best part of the second half!
A great positive feeling in the sheds after the game which is what it's all about 💙💛

We were lucky to have Lachie be part of our club
Rest easy Lachie 💙💛
