Keeping the shammies scoreless was no doubt particularly pleasing for the Burke Cup coaching staff whose methods have raised eyebrows across the subbies rugby scene in recent weeks.

Kentwell suffered a frustrating loss to the defending premiers with countless turnovers cruelling the home side’s chances.

Elsewhere, Radford I lost to Easts 4th colts thanks to a last minute try and conversion, while Radford II narrowly went down to Mosman’s 2nd colts after they spent much of the second half with 13 men.
