Round 8 | Saturday June 2018

Gosford vs Avoca | Gosford Showground

This Saturday saw Andrew Ellem run out for the 350th time for Gosford Red Devils. Including 145 1st grade games along with countless years of off field roles from club president to lawn mowing and almost everything in between. Congratulations on such an achievement Elles and thank you for all that you do for our club.

Third Grade | 19 - 7 Avoca Beach

" Once again, 3’s hung in for the entirety of the game but the opening passages of play really hurt the devils. Finishing 19-7 down was disappointing but credit to everyone for hanging in. 3’s are improving every week and the bounce of the ball is only just around the corner." - Aaron Crofts

Second Grade | 31 - 19 Gosford

" 2nds put in their best performance of the year so far with a strong win over 2nd placed Avoca, 31-19. Gosford dominated the breakdown, scrums and line outs, and the backs controlled field position and always looked dangerous. Still things to improve on, particularly some variation in attack but a good performance nearing the half way mark of the competition." - Andrew Moseley

First Grade | 22 - 19 Avoca Beach

" Gosford first grade put in a terrific effort against Avoca and led on the scoreboard for the majority of the match. It was a much improved performance. Gosford outplayed second place Avoca for the majority of the match and were unlucky not to come away with the victory. Congratulations to Avoca on a hard fought win." - Jackson Steinbeck
