SLC 30 - IONA 19

The SLC v Padua game started off as expected, with the Lauries forwards displaying their usual dominance. Padua spent the first 10-15 minutes of the game in their half. After holding Lauries off, Padua gained momentum and got a pretty quick try to make it 7-0. Almost immediately after the kick...

Ashgrove have kept a clean sheet four weeks in a row now. If Villa don't get their heads right then next week's probable premiership decider is going to stop being a question of "if villa can win" and moreso "if villa can even get a point on the board". On another note, can anyone fill me in on...

If the Lauries boys can rally from last weekend and play with the fluidity they did against Eddies they should get on top of Padua by 20 or more. On paper, Iona should beat Pats but then again Pats are coming off an absolute towelling of Eddies and Iona off of a pretty decisive loss to Villa -...

Villa's attack may be better than Lauries, but their defence is miles behind. The SLC boys have kept Iona and Eddies to 0, whilst Villa have conceded 12 and 19 points to those two teams respectively. I hate to say it (and it is an early call) but if Lauries couldn't do it, I don't think any team...

Not sure if you could say it was a late hit. Was at the game and from where I was it looked like the SLC 14 hit him hard and clean with a full run up just as the ball came into his hand. Woulda been some serious whiplash, but not illegal. Real shame as well because that 15 was far and away the...

hence my use of the word "if".

Does anyone remember the 2017 10A's game between Lauries and Ashgrove? MCA had around 80% posession, yet SLC's grit and heart got them to a 7-7 draw (they'd lost to the same Ashgrove team by more than 50 points in the trial match only a few weeks prior). Most of those same boys are in this...

I was at Shorncliffe on Saturday and was amazed by the Lauries 2nds inside centre. He was a head tape wearing maniac who practically made a 10m or more line break everytime he got his hands on the ball. I don't know his name but I believe he played 1sts for Laurie's last year and I wouldn't at...
