Close win against Toowoomba Bears

The Emus played the Toowoomba Bears in Goondiwindi in the opening game of the season at Riddle on Saturday.

"It was a tough game for the Emus; the Bears are one of the better sides in the Risdon Cup," Mathew Said.

"The forward pack went well; Michael Jamieson and Andrew Macpherson scored tries, Will Gilbert kicked a penalty and a conversion. And the coach got sin binned for ten minutes." he said.

A Grade won a hard-fought match 15-6.

B Grade went down 38-17.

"The Bear's C don't travel and forfeited the match," Mathew said.

There will be another home game next weekend on Saturday, April 9, with the Emus playing Gatton. C Grade starts at 12pm and A Grade gets underway at 1/30pm.
