1st Grade back to winning ways

Quins 1st Grade got back to some winning ways with a big 60-5 win against Endeavour Hills on Saturday. Quins dominated throughout the game, but struggled to put points on the board in the 1st half going to the main break only 17-0 up. Quins came out in the 2nd half far more determined and piled on 43 points, Justin Tavae scored 4 tries and Afa Amosa got back to his ball running best. Colts captain Andrew Fullman had quite a impact in the 2nd half and a number of other Colts got their first taste of 1st Grade such as Andrew Blannin, Vince Fulena and last year colt Michael Shadbolt.

2nd Grade won well in boggy conditions on the back field 43-5 with Emil Vartazarian continuing to amass a huge points tally for the season with more tries and goal kicking. 3rd Grade had the toughest match of the day with a 38-24 victory to ensure they gained the maximum 5 points. The QUADS played Melbourne Colts going down 5-24 in what was a good hard game of rugby.

2nd Grade backs in action. See more photos of the day at the club facebook page.
