South Burnett Eagle Casey Jones flies over the line to score in the second half of the U18s Bundaberg JRL game<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

April 28, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n

South Burnett Eagles were pipped at the post in a nail-biting Round 2 Under 18s rugby league game played at Kingaroy last Sunday.<\/p>\n

At half-time, the home team was ahead 8-6 over Bundaberg Past Brothers and were still leading 20-12 with about 10 minutes left on the clock.<\/p>\n

But at the eight minute mark, Bundaberg’s Joseph Doyle ran the ball the length of the field from a scrum win to put Brothers back into the game.<\/p>\n

The successful conversion by Ezekiel Monckton put Bundy within spitting distance at 20-18.<\/p>\n

As the clock ticked down, Bundaberg attempted a two-point field goal attempt.<\/p>\n

The many South Burnett fans at T.J. O’Neill Oval breathed a sigh of relief when it missed, but their celebrations were quickly dashed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

With less than a minute on the clock, Mitchell Sly scored a try to put Brothers ahead 22-20 right on the final siren.<\/p>\n

South Burnett try scorers were Harry Sippel, Jack Webber, Charlie Sippel and Casey Jones. Jayden Tewes-Smallwood kicked two conversions.<\/p>\n

Bundaberg tries were scored by Joseph Doyle (2), Jan Kirchner and Mitchell Sly. Ezekiel Monckton kicked three goals.<\/p>\n

Just one A Grade SBRL game was played last weekend, a clash between the home team, Kingaroy Red Ants, and the Cherbourg Hornets.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Last Post was sounded and a minute’s silence held before the start of the match to commemorate the upcoming Anzac Day.<\/p>\n

The first A Grade game of the season, played immediately after the BJRL Under 18s game on Sunday, looked set to be another nail-biter.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg started strongly, scoring back-to-back tries in the first few minutes.<\/p>\n

At half-time, Cherbourg and Kingaroy had scored three tries apiece and an epic battle looked likely with the scores locked at 14-all.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg broke the deadlock, with Michael Aubrey scoring in the corner.<\/p>\n

But the Red Ants then found new life, notching up two tries in four minutes.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg lost momentum at the 20-minute mark when one of their players suffered an accidental head knock from a Kingaroy defender near the posts.<\/p>\n

The game was delayed for more than 30 minutes while paramedics attended to the injured player.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When play eventually restarted, Kingaroy put on two more quick tries, which were both converted.<\/p>\n

The final score was 36-18.<\/p>\n

Kingaroy tries were scored by Sata Tale (3), Iona Varomusu, Blake Augustine, Adam Nightingale and Alex Pomfret. Harry Sterling kicked four goals.<\/p>\n

Cherbourg try scorers were Lance Gadd, Patrick Alberts, Preston Mosby and Michael Aubrey. Lewis Hopkins kicked one goal.<\/p>\n
