Under 8
Maroon v Lakes
Taine Pauls and Junior Feagai tackled well, and Ben Barnes and Jack Evans also contributed. Flynn Anthony, Carta Jackson and Jackson Dale ran the ball forward with the help of Isaak Blake and Jayden Cooper, who broke the line many times.
Maroon v Black & Whites
With the help of a few Lakes players, B&W were too strong for our Maroons.
Under 12s
Waratah Tigers 28 d Leeton 12 (tries - Rowan Matthews, Kye Davis; cons - Rowan, Kye)
All boys tried hard, including the under 11s that helped out with a number of regular players unavailable.
Under 13s
Leeton 42 (tries - Max Feagai 5, Lucas Millemaggi 2, Dayne Butler, Braxton Wallace; cons - Braxton 2, Ryan Pitt, Kody Collins) d Waratah Tigers 12
Leeton put on an awesome display with Max Feagai still in representative mode and giving the crowd a display of his talent. Brother Matt set up winger Lucas Millemaggi to score.
Braxton Wallace had forwards Kody Collins, Jaykob Williams, Jordie Dale, JJ Smith and Darcey Fletcher making valuable metres, while Dayne Butler showed up lazy marker defence by from dummy half. Braxton scored off his fantastic inside step and weaving through the broken defensive line.
Kai Schmetzer put his body on the line as Koby Eglinton, Kurt Bloomfield and Ryan Pitt defended brilliantly. The Raiders did not drop the ball once in the first half.

In a great game of fast running football, the girls played a top first half with Sophie Anthony scoring a near length of the field try and the team only let in three.
Charlotte Rudd, Emily Wright and Sophie made quick tags and breaks. Sigrid McLoughlin, Victoria Emery and best on ground Nicola Clark were strong in organising the defence.
With tired legs in the second half the girls still put up a strong 20 minutes. Cleo McLoughlin and Isabel Halls tried hard throughout.

GGGM 7.4 (46) d Leeton-Whitton 3.4 (21)
THE Crows played well in the first quarter at Ganmain with solid work in the middle from Braithe Schmetzer, Taj Doyle and Jay Tang resulting in a goal to Will Pizzolante.
Jack Coelli had a brilliant game gathering the ball on many occasions and was critical in helping to contain the Lions.
Only one point was scored from either side in the second quarter. Ethan DePaoli and Ben Schmidt played well and showed how much their skills have improved throughout the season.
Che Gillespie proved to be a problem for GGGM, getting plenty of the ball. Tyson Melvin rucked all day and was rewarded with a goal in the final quarter.
Despite a great game and excellent play, GGGM was too good on the day.
Under 13s
Leeton-Whitton Crows 18.19 (127) d GGGM Lions 1.1 (7)
IT WAS a percentage-boosting win for coach Doyle's side as they look to a top-two finish.
Thanks to possession secured by Coopa Steele, Josh Thomas and Angus Boulton, the game was played within the Crows forward fifty.
The Lions defensive efforts countered the early attacks, but once the floodgates opened, the Crows kept the scoreboard ticking over.
Tom Van Buuren and Nathan Ryan took advantage of the football glut, kicking 10 goals between them.
Rare counter attacks by the Lions were comfortably repelled by Jack Rourke and Harry Morris, while Jackson Bullivant found time and space in the pockets to recycle possession.
A brief loss of focus midway through the third quarter had the Lions register their only points, but the Crows refocused, with Bailey Wood kicking a spectacular over-the-shoulder goal from the pocket.
Goals: Tom, 6, Nathan, 4, Coopa, 3, Jye Doyle 2, Kobe Shaw, Bailey, Angus
Best: Nathan, Tom, Jack, Coopa, Angus, Josh

Leeton-Whitton Crows 4.15 (39) d GGGM Lions 3.5 (23)
THE wins keep coming for the table-topping Crows.
An early morning start combined, with thick fog and a slick surface, made conditions tricky.
The Crows midfield held their own, with Matt Drinan's solid work in the ruck providing opportunities for Jake Wood and Hugh Collins to feed the ball forward.
Harrison Kimball worked hard in the forward line and combined well with Cooper Sharman and Will Ormond.
The Crows defence led by Mark Salafia, Sam Hopper and Tyh Evans had to work hard to keep the Lions and their big men under control.
With a five-point lead at three-quarter time, coach Sharman deployed Daniel Fisher in the forward line as a target man.
The resulting flurry of late goals allowed the Crows to pull away and secure the points.
Goals: Will, Daniel, Cooper, Johnny Draper
Best: Sam, Mark, Harrison, Tyh Evans, Cooper, Jake Wood

Lions 26 d Leeton-Whitton Crows 8

In the second and third quarters the girls worked hard to stay in the game.
Naomi Wyles, Kendal Young and Emily Alampi were consistent.
Despite being a player down, the team didn't give up.
Tess Handsaker had a strong final quarter as centre.

GGGM Lions 20 d Leeton-Whitton Crows 4
THE team went to Ganmain without its top goal shooters.
However, Andrea Iannelli, Gemma and Chelsea Gleeson and Megan Carroll all stepped up.
The game was physical, with both teams penalised for contact.
Meg Handsaker was given the task of defending Ganmain's top goal shooter.
She worked hard using her height to her advantage.
The girls controlled the ball well and their teamwork was impressive.
