Another weekend passes, and with plenty to talk about about this and the upcoming weekend’s events. I could go on all night, but Caddyshack is on.
The Gurgler’s favourite team PNG lost their first game. But fear not, they are in town over the next few weekends so head to Langlands Park or North Ipswich Reserve for quality league.
The Steve “Marvellous” Mavin Trophy for BEST OF LAST WEEKEND
3pts – Last 10 minutes of Broncos v Roosters
2pts – West Tigers and Gold Coast winning after short back up and extremely hot conditions on previous game.
1pt – Jarrod Hayne’s spray at Ref’s – at least it’s not bland clichés.
