Thrashers)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>May 16, 2023<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The South Burnett Thrashers continued their winning streak on Saturday, downing the Toowoomba Bears 34-19 at Southern Cross Oval in Toowoomba.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This was the first game that we packed full contested scrums,&#8221; club president Jamie Shirlaw said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given the promotion to B Grade this year, Downs Rugby allowed us a few games to train our forward pack to scrummage safely.\u00a0 Scrums in C Grade are uncontested.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The forward pack looked very solid at training on Wednesday night but there were nerves going into the match having not contested scrums.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Club vice-president\u00a0Jason Lee said the team scrummaged well, and didn&#8217;t lose a scrum all game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The team started well scoring four tries in the first half,&#8221; Jason said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>&#8220;In the second half, the Bears dominated possession but again our big forwards finished the game in style.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We finished the match with a late try and penalty kick at the death of the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was great to see the team get off to a strong start in the game as there have been a few games this season where the team is slow to start then finishes strong in the second half.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;After the game the team took their post game singing to a new level with both teams in the one huddle singing the Fijian hymn, &#8216;Oqo Na Noqu Masu&#8217;, together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Thrashers will be back in Toowoomba next Saturday, facing the Condamine Cods at USQ.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_332080\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-332080\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
