Close, But no Cigar

 

An amazing turn around in the second saw the Hounds nearly snatch victory from the jaws of defeat against Banyo on Saturday.
Going into half time down 28 – nil, the Blue and Whites dug in and turned the match on its head as they  scored five tries to one in the final stanza,  only to be denied by the clock as they went down 34 – 28 .
Normanby’s final home game is this Saturday against Dayboro, and despite the mounting injury list, the Hounds will be fired up to try and avenge their close loss to the Cowboys in the first round. See you there.

GE 2010 Wrap

A civilised gathering was held last week as the Hounds and their associates came together for the GE 2010.

Despite early concerns the numbers would be done, 58 gents attended and in turn raised over $1,300 for the Normanby Trip Away to Airlie Beach in September. Thanks to all those who attended and a special mention and thanks to Michael Hinchcliffe and Troy Parker for getting the event off the ground, as well as Tim O’Shea for keeping an eye on proceedings.
