Hi Guys,
The first trial of the year saw us take on Petersham and was another great step into a big year. With a host of new guys showing great heart (Darren holding his own when thrown into contested scrums and Dale killing everything that ran at him) the season finally launched. Not to be outdone, Gump, Kev and the most beaten halfback in the world, Smurf all showed up well.

Against a strongly stacked Div 3 club it was always going to be a day of irrelevant scoreboards. What was most pleasing was the dogged tenacity that has, over the years, become a hallmark of the Convicts badge. In the third and final term against a trial for 1st and 2nd grade for Petersham we dug in when many clubs would have decided that the going was just too hard, so well done boys. A big well done for those that made it to such an important trial and did the hard work to set the season off on the right track.

Cheers,

Charlie
President
