Cabramatta leapfrogged Wenty with a 16-8 win at Ringrose tonight. After a slow start to the season Cabra have started to gain a bit of momentum. There is a definite Balmain flavour about the Cabra side. Current Tiger, Luke Branighan was in attendance to watch the team he left a few weeks ago. Cabra still includes Laloa Milford, Steve Jolly and Jason Thompson, all of whom have played 1st grade with the Tigers and Aaron Fluke, a Tigers Premier League player in 2003.
Cabra also have Robbie Payne, who has played 1st grade with Wests Tigers, current Parramatta Premier league back Steve Mowbray, David Djukich and Keith Heckenberg, who played P/L with Wests and Cronulla respectively last year and Willie Brown, who played in the Parra 1st division grand final team in 2001.
All of this just goes to prove that despite the Jim Beam restrictions, it is still possible to put a reasonable squad together provided you can find a few high calibre backup players that dont register highly on the points scale.
Cabra officials are confident that the club's directors will make the necessary funds available to ensure that Cabra are are in the top division of the State Cup, when the NSWRL competitions are restructured.
