The game was played in 20 minute quarters and the final score line doesn’t reflect how competitive the game was.

Holbrook marginally won the first quarter by a single try in the last moment.

The 2nd quarter was easily won by the home side by 4 tries to nil with Crawley taking the 3rd session with 2 tries to 1. The much younger home side took the final quarter making the end result 47 – 12.

The Bulldogs, predominantly a Veterans team, welcomed back several players that had left their fold and also some new players, one of which was making a comeback after 13 years away from the game.

We wish Holbrook well in their upcoming first league game of the season.
