I thought it was a cracking game, the Ref was a bit fussy at times and then ignored a couple of things but don't all ref's? East started very well taking control but late in the first half Miners seemed to start clawing their way back into it, in terms of territory and possession, they then built on that in the second and overall probably deserved their victory.



Well done to Miners, Good Luck to East on winning the title, it would be good to see both teams in a re-run in the Grand Final.



Contrary to what some may think, the lack of highlights is more likely due to the fact Fred's on holiday rather than East losing.

Correct. I was stood in that corner during the first half and in my opinion it was a rightly dissallowed try but for the wrong reason.



The ref disallowed it for a knock on even though the Easts player didnt lose control of the ball.



The right decision was a double movement but the ref didnt give it.



Great game to watch, I think Easts are a better team overall, but once Miners got a roll on in the last 20 there was no stopping them.

That's unusual, seeing the word "agree" in a reply to one of my posts.

I also agree that we will leave it at that however I will add that I can only comment things I see from "my end" .

Now then Mr Chairman ( keith) when you have to resort to personal insults showing a total lack of RESPECT to answer to banter then it is quite clear that it is you that needs to calm down funny though is it not ,no comments from you on your website.

But if it bothers you and you want a quiet life from me without my banter then so be it ,sad very sad Keith thought you was bigger than that

They don't like it up 'em!!!

In my view Easts sank down to the Minors ( deliberate spelling mistake ) level and stopped playing their game and retaliated to the dark sides thuggish tactics





A good try disallowed for the Easts , a blatant knock on for the Minors winning try but overall a good derby game and fair play ( pun ) to the dark side for not giving up and stealing the win





Ah well still 2 away games left for the Red and Blacks to get the point they need to win the league then onwards and upwards to win the grand final and hopefully meet the Minors there

Fred usually posts the highlights but he's away doing his community service for a few weeks

But Terry G was there recording it and he puts it on the east site and if I ask him nicely he may post on here

Blimey - and I thought it was just us blues who were bitter!!!!

East took their foot off the gas in the 2nd half , Miners got on a roll and made the posession count . Very close game and very entertaining . Have no doubt that East will win the league title over the next 2 games , that in itself earns the East bragging rights as champions of the league and the town , individual bragging rights for derbys still belongs to the Miners in recent years , but you can't take anything away from East for the way they have played this season.



Hope the Grand Final is East Vs Miners , simply because of how entertaining last nights game was

I see you're back to the black and yellow rosette Keith! Not on the turn are you?

What was the crowd last night?

was a very good crowd on ,east will go on and win the league now,but last night belonged to the miners,east had it int bag but some wrong play cost them the game,the highlight for me was 10 min to go and wingy shouting last few min lads and we are the champs,just wait till i see him never count your chickens before comes to mind,bragging wrights to the miners well done in a season were 62 players have been involved in the first team that shows some spirit,good luck to both sides in the play offs.
