Scotty Laurie still got it

The silky front-rower had a run with Roseby Park Raiders (Jerrinja) but they got done 18-12 by Narrungdera Wanderers.

Scott Laurie had a run with Roseby Park Raiders but just wearing a Blacktown jumper here.

He still deadly though, and if you need a reminder of how he rolls, here yas go:

Fastest try ever?

Not sure of the record, but Wellington Wedgetails scored one I reckon 10-12 seconds after the kickoff.

They sent it down to a Kamilaroi Galamaays forward, who knocked it on in the tackle, then they passed to the winger to dive over.

Unbelievable stuff.

I remember seeing Alby Kelly score that one when playing for Newtown ... but this was QUICK.

Also, shoutout to this ball boy, doing a great job brother.

Wellington way too strong for Kamilaroi Galamaays.

Family is what it's all about

Love all the connections through the sides.

Lovely pic here after Narwan Eels beat Dindima.

Two sets of fathers and sons.

Dennis Moran, his son Bayden, Jimmy Widders, Steven Widders, Dean Widders and his son Dean Jnr.

These three brothers are no stranger to a Knockout too! Bit of Josh Kerr and Brent Naden in there as well.

These scam links are hurtin' me

They really are. Sore thumb here from hitting the BAN button.

Just know you only need to either watch the streams on our Facebook or

SBS On Demand here

.

Don't go clicking on those gwangi links, I will keep deleting them.

Andrew Fifita the Griffith Three Ways goalkicker!

True! The brother can do anything, or can he? lol

He still happy though.

With the brother Bud Sullivan.

And so is Jimmy Roberts.

Another solid turnout by the mob

The weather has turned dustier and dustier as this day has gone on - but great to see so many of our people around the compound.

The young ones were making the most of it, few sliding tries here.

Nothing better than some mud footy. Next try wins.

This fulla has the idea, nice hot pie and kicking back watching the games.

A few Mount Druitt supporters watching on this morning.

What a solid match!!!

Wow! What a cracker for us early in the morning - Walgett and South Coast bunged it on HARD.

WAC finished a bit too strong running out 16-6 winners, but what a gallant display by the defending champions.

Some class on show at the end there with Benny Barba and Latrell both scoring tries.

That win sets up what's going to be another solid clash - WAC will now take on Cody Walker's Bundjalung Baygal Warriors, who put Combined Countries out 14-0. That one will be 0910am tomorrow morning on Field 2.

If you missed that one - catch up on our Facebook page.

Latrell Mitchell is in the house

The deadly fulla has been cruising around in Walgett Aboriginal Connection kit - is he having a run though? Everyone bit tight-lipped, talk he just running the water for them.

Got a mad pic there with him and Benny Barba, also saw Joely Thompson too, even talk Gorgeous Georgey has brought the boots this year - going to be a strong side I reckon!

Have to tune in to our Facebook Live stream of WAC vs South Coast Black Cockatoos at 1020am and have a look for yourselves.
