4TH GRADE REPORT
****************************
Submitted by Ian Crothers



Hornsby 14 – St Ives 10

Given almost the entire squad had played 2 games the day 
before, it was going to take a super effort to grab a third 
successive win. It ended up being ‘nail biter’ – made a bit 
closer than it needed to be by a disallowed try late in the 
game that even surprised the St Ives players, not to mention 
the Home crowd! Nonetheless, another really solid team 
performance which sees us move from 8th to 5th on the ladder 
in the space of a week. We are now within striking distance 
of a semi final spot – but we have a very hard run home having 
to still play the top 3 teams, so an even greater effort will 
now be required over these remaining 5 games.
 

Tries – both our tries today were scored by Lilo  who had a 
great game at 12


Points – Mark Jones 3, Trent 2 and Wayde 1

As a footnote to this weekend’s double-header, it should not 
go unmentioned that almost all of the 4 grade squad played 4 
games in 2 days (some, like Marksie, and Owen played more!) 
A super human effort guys – well done!
