Yanco-Wamoon fall to Yenda in Group 20 first grade

In what has been a difficult season for the Hawks thus far, they would have hoped that a return home for just the second time this season would have been motivation to pick up their first points on the field so far this season.

They took on a Yenda side who had found their stride in recent weeks and were coming into the game off the back of two wins, having had a tough start with a young side.

The young Blueheelers side proved to be too good for the Hawks as they were able to come away with a 34-8 victory.

Charlie Tiaina had a day out for Yenda as he got across for three tries, while Noah Forbutt scored twice, with Jayden Little and Guiseppe Rovere rounding out the Blueheelers scoring.

Petero Taitusi was one of the two try scorers for the Hawks on another difficult day for the home side.

With one round remaining before the June long weekend, the Yanco side will be hoping they will be able to gather some momentum before heading into the second half of the season.
