It was a huge weekend for Brothers Rugby, with three teams taking to the field in their Preliminary Finals with a place in the Grand Final on the line.
5th Grade booked their spot in the Grand Final with an impressive 40–30 victory over UQ, while 3rd Grade delivered a dominant performance, defeating UQ 24–5. Both teams now turn their attention to the biggest game of the season at Ballymore this weekend.
It was heartbreak for Colts 1, who fell agonisingly short against Souths, going down 35–33 in a thrilling contest. While the result didn't go their way, the Colts can be incredibly proud of what has been a fantastic season. To fall just two points short in a Preliminary Final is a tough way to finish, but they have represented the club with plenty of pride throughout the year.
Congratulations to all three teams on an outstanding season. We can't wait to see our 5th Grade and 3rd Grade sides take on their Grand Finals at Ballymore this weekend along with Colts 2, 2nd Grade and 1st Grade
Go the Brethren! 🏉💙
