Congratulations to the Fyshwick Tavern Embalmers For their 15 – 11 victory against the Juniors in the C of C grand final last night.
This is a particularly outstanding achievement as the Embalmers are now the first team to score the hat trick for the year – both Div 1 seasons and the C of C! Sensational work guys!
Commiserations to the Juniors, but great job getting to the final. Sincere thanks to all teams that participated and the hosting venues!
