Ballina Rugby Union welcomed the Moree Bulls for the first annual Rooster Trophy. The origins of the Trophy have not been fully explained but it is sufficient to thank Mick Koellner for his friendly welcome for the Moree team.

The game was played in excellent spirits with Moree winning the game by 2 points. The tries were 3 each.

The coaching staff were impressed with the entire playing group and the heavy preseason is showing great results. The playing group, whilst suffering from Jerry and Mick are happy with their input and looking forward to more core exercises.

In a shock to the entire club Dangar scored the first try, and has been reminding everyone since, it will be a long season. Pumpa scored one as well, and is being as obnoxious as Dangar about it.

Ballina are looking forward to the trip out west next year and all the players would like to identify Sparrow, Koelner and Longy as the guilty parties. Leave passes will need to be granted for the Thursday to Sunday for next year’s trip.
