The team started to settle down and defend well; particularly Hamish McGrath, Ryan Cox, Jaylin Moran and Ryan (Rambo) Whitney.
This strong defence soon saw the ball back in the hands of the Blues and a fast moving Jaylin Moran hit the turf under the posts with another successful conversion by Linc James taking the score to 12-0.

Despite the loss, the team can hold their heads high; they gave it a good shot with some great defence by the Cronin brothers (Tommy and Riley) and some awesome runs up the middle by Matty Skinner.
Rhys Thompson flicked some good passes out of first receiver which really confused the opposition and a great try was scored by Taj Lovett after he made a quick break down the right hand side to score.

The Parkes Under 14's took on a big, solid Cobar side and were going to have to defend well and make their tackles count.

Joe was through to score again after a Cobar error gave Parkes possession. The conversion was unsuccessful taking the score to 22-2 at half-time.
It didn't take long for Parkes to score in the second half, when a kick from Toby Cox hit the posts bouncing back not only in the field of play but into Jack Milne's hands for a try.
