A couple of tough games over the last couple of weekends.
The first game was against Marist green on their home ground. A good start saw POB get out to a 2 try lead however the next 3 tries went to Marist who played to their strengths with good straight seeing Connal Breen and Ed Laidlaw crash over for tries. The 2nd half opened with POB chasing a couple of kicks down into Marist territory. The boys got their running game going and scored twice to see make the final score 5 - 3 to POB.
Player of the day was Callum Nimmo with Callan Jones also standing out up front.
Thursday before Queens Birthday weekend saw a night game against Star at POB
As usual Star rolled up with team that was huge. A good sized crowd on the try line was treated to a game that saw both sides get stuck into each other in the mud. Good tackling in the backs by the midfield pairing of Louie Patterson and Ethan Hair was matched up front by the efforts of Callum Robertson, Luke Harvey and Callan Jones. POB took a 3 try lead into the last 5 minutes however 2 quick tries by Star closed things up and supporters were relieved when the ref blew for full time when Star were attacking the POB line. Final score 6 - 5.
Another good team effort saw the boys get home late, a post game debrief identified a lack of 1/2 time oranges as a factor in Star finishing strongly.
Player of the day was Josh Murrell.
