TWO BLUES TOO GOOD FOR NELSON BAY

Merewether’s slim finals hopes remain alive in local rugby, after an upset win over Maitland today.

There were wins for Lake Macquarie and the Beaches, and a huge margin for ladder-leaders Hamilton. The Wanderers hold onto second.

Now sitting just outside finals footy, Nelson Bay found the Two Blues tough to contain, and in particular, Tim Marsh.

He posted a hat-trick after trying his luck down the sideline, with simply too much speed to be stopped.

They’re known for a big second half, and unfortunately for the Bay there were only getting started – Cal McDonald with the initial break, before Scott McCormick took control on one of their best plays of the season.

A lucky deflection, and some good hands, saw the Two Blues win all but confirmed.
