Watching the scores come in on nswrl.com, the Matts boys are fighting hard.
They opened the scoring after just 3 minutes with a try which was converted for 6-0 and added a penalty goal on 10 minutes to make it 8-0. A bright start. But 2 tries to the Steelers before halftime meant we were behind at the break by 8-10.
The Steelers then went further ahead with another unconverted try to make it 8-14 but the boys came back hard with 2 tries and one conversion to lead again 18-14 with 1 minute remaining and that was the final score as South Sydney HM boys have qualified for the prelim next week!
WOOO!!! Great result. Both our boys teams will be in action in the prelims next week. Awesome stuff!
The other semi saw the Roosters knock out the Roosters. Not kidding. 2 Roosters teams in this comp but the CC Roosters defeated the Sydney Roosters so got to prefer that.
We (7th) will play either the Knights (4th) or the Wahs (3rd) in one of the prelims and obviously CC Chooks (5th) will get the other. The Steelers were minor premiers but are now out in straight sets while the Sydney Roosters finished 2nd and have also gone out in straight sets.
We are in this comp up to our eyeballs!!! Awesome result lads!!!
