The stage was set for the Preliminary Finals on Sunday 1 September, with the Burdekin Rugby Union Canetoads fighting for their place in both grades. The Reggies delivered a strong performance, but the Brothers capitalized on their chances, demonstrating a polished game. Both sides engaged in a physical and fast-paced contest that kept the spectators captivated. Unfortunately, luck was not on our side, as the Brothers overcame the Toads, knocking them out of Grand Final contention with the final score being 32 – 12.
The second game was a nail-biter! Locked in a tense deadlock with just five minutes remaining in the first half, North Ward broke through to take the lead. But the Canetoads rallied, executing some brilliant tries and pulling ahead to 17-12 with only 20 minutes left on the clock. The Old Boys responded, sending the score to 24-19 and raising everyone’s pulse. In a tense finish, the Toads managed to keep possession in the closing minutes, controlling the game and securing the win we needed to advance to the Grand Final next weekend!
The Burdekin Rugby Union Canetoads also shared a special shout-out to all their Rugby Dads, past and present, Sunday to celebrate Father’s Day!
