Semi Finals and Club Champs

Last Saturday’s wins by the Colleagues lower grades and colts over Mosman were enough to secure the 2016 Bruce Graham Shield and make the Blue Giants back to back Club Champs.
Colleagues had fight hard all day against the Whales who have been a formidable club in 2016.
At the end of last Saturday Colleagues ended up on 2,589 Club Championship points, 194 ahead of Mosman and 630 ahead of Petersham.

Welcome to finals footy!

Congratulations guys for winning the club championship and making it into the finals!! To have all grades involved in finals is a testament to the strength of the club. Unfortunately this means that other clubs have the advantage of staking their grades so be prepared to come up against opposition that you have not faced in the regular season. These games are always tough but I am confident that we have the depth to be able to weather storm and be playing at the end of August!
