This was originally scheduled as an away match but the teams swapped games earlier in the season.<\/p>\n<p>This is a particularly important game for the Thrashers with finals coming up as both sides are at a similar spot on the competition ladder.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38922\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38922\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-38922\" title=\"20130713 Thrashers v Toowoomba Bears\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union2.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union2-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38922\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chris Schmocker grounds the ball after his runaway try in the first half<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38923\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38923\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-38923\" title=\"20130713 Thrashers v Toowoomba Bears\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union3.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union3-300x120.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38923\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">It was a bruising encounter for the South Burnett Thrashers\u00a0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_38924\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-38924\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-38924\" title=\"20130713 Thrashers v Toowoomba Bears\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union4.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/20130715union4-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-38924\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Toowoomba Bears tested the South Burnett&#8217;s defence at times<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The South Burnett Thrashers enjoyed sweet revenge against the Toowoomba Bears in their rugby union clash at St Mary&#8217;s Oval in Kingaroy on Saturday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":38921,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3,164,6],"tags":[1142],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.11 -
