SHOCK

The Jack 9's have suffered there first loss of the season going down 5-4 to Redbulls.

The game started of like most others with Jack 9's getting of to a great start with Stepy putting Morris over for a early try before scoring one himself. Redbulls then scored a try before Stepy replyed with his second to send the score to 3-1. This is when Jack 9's just switch off and let Redbulls come back and tie the game. This is when Stepy got his 3rd for the game but it was not enough Jack 9's defence was just not up to its usual standard and the Redbulls manage to late tries to steal the match.

We play Dictation next week and we will have to control the ball alot better and get there defence back on track if we dont want another lost to our record.

Undefeated season still in grasp

Despite a less than impressive performance, Jack 9's won there 10 straight game in defeating Price Attack 3-2 thanks to last minute heroics from Scott "stepy" Piper. with the game destined for a draw, scott capitalised on a quick dump, from the sensation and split 2 defenders to run the length of the field, but being dummy half scott could not score the try and had to wait for the support to arrive, and it did so in the form of craig "caveman" piper scoring his second try of the game to seal the victory for the jack 9's.
With only 3 games left Jack 9's are closing in on finishing the season undefeated, we will need to improve though as we play teams 2 (red bulls) and 3 (typhoons) in the next 3 weeks.

Still Rolling

In the past two week Jack 9's have won 9-2 over the Skainsies and 13-2 over The Ruffle Boys. The boys have put in a couple of solid performances.

In the game against the Skainsies Scott (Stepy) Piper was a stand out scoring 4 tries, he was well back up by Mark Astill who scored 3. Aaron Willis also had a solid game. This game came at a price with Mark (Ladderman) Beard went down with a knee injury.

One week later the boys where at it again with Stepy bagging 4 more and Darren (The Fastest Man Alive) Morris Jr got 3. Mark Astill got 2 aswell as Aaron (Stump) Willis bagged a double aswell. In this game there was not a bad player on the field with everyone contributing in some way.

Good couple of weeks boys lets keep the good work up.

Jack 9's Worst Still The Best

In there worst game to date the Jack 9's still came away with a 5-3 victory over Typhoons. jack 9's droped alot of ball early but were still able to come score the first try through some quick hands from The Pipes and Stump to put "The fastest man alive" morris over. Jack 9's were soon in again through Nick "no make up" Frail. Then the Jack 9's went through a rough patch after The Sensation was binned this lead to 2 Typhoon try's. It was then a arm wrestle before Stepy hop skiped and ran away for another long range try bring his tally to 16. Then the Typhoons tied it up at 3 all after some bad decsion went against Jack 9's. The next try was a family act when Stepy ran a great decoy and some quick thinking from The Pipes help him to dive over for a soft try. The final try come with seconds on the clock when Stepy found some space drew the winger in and put Stump down the sideline for the match winner. Special mention to the Instigator for dropping the ball of the game from Stepy, a great cut out ball to put him in space with a 3 man overlap.

Good effort boys but alot of improvement needed if we want to stay undefeated!!!

Jack 9's run riot

On the back of dominating performances from scott "stepy" piper (3 tries) and Darren "fastest man alive" morris (4 tries) Jack 9's thrashed a helpless dictation team 13-1, in what was a devastating display that would of sent chills down the spine of division rivals, jack 9's scored on only the 3rd play of the game and from there the rest was history.
mark beard (2 tries) and Nick frail (2 tries) also had excellent games in what was an all round great team performance.

But now for the bad news. After such a stella performance it comes with much dissapointment to announce that 3 players have been cut due to their lack of commitment to the team, with much discussion from the team after the match we decided to cut Thor Sutherland, Joe bennetts and Damien walsh, although they seemed commited at seasons start, between them have only played 5 games, and as a team we see this as unacceptable when we are out there in 34 degree + temperatures and they are sitting in there lounge rooms or playing free roll poker events. sorry guys but you made the decision for us.

Nick's Highlight

The Jack 9's continued there winnings ways with a hard fought win over price attack 3-1. A new player to the team (thor) got the first try after The Pipes gave him a lovely short ball. The next 10 min was back and forth before Stepy did one of his trademark in and away and dove over in the corner. Price Attack then scored a controversial try where the player droped the ball over the line but was given. The last try come from The Sensation when he strolled through a huge gap down the middle. The play of the day was a easy decision after Nick took a beautiful intercept and was away with only stepy within 10 metres and then "it" happened. He started to fall, then he was falling, then finaly he was down and out with a cheer from the crowd. The Jack 9's now have a 3 week break before the continue total domination!!!

Jack 9's thump Ruffle boyz

Jack 9's put on their most devestating display lastnight, in disposing of division 5 rejects the ruffle boyz 7-0.
Scott piper was the star of the show bagging 4 tries taking his season tally to 10. Nic Frail and Craig Piper got their first tries of the season, while a length of the field intercept from mark astill with minutes left took his season tally to 5.
With a few players missing under suspicious circumstances some of the team have questioned these players commitment to the team, and if their attitude continues through to next week they will be asked to hand their jerseys in.
