Highfields Eagles - two
teams into grand final
It was an action packed
weekend of rugby league at the
Toowoomba Sports Stadium, for
week three of the TRL preliminary
finals with a full register for
the Highfields Eagles with all
three men’s teams playing for a
spot in the grand final.
The first match of the day saw
the under 19s take on Warwick
Cowboys. Coached by Steve
Haywood, the Eagles were seeking
redemption after their poor
performance last week against
the Hawks.
The opening 15 minutes saw a
lot of defence by Highfields after
a few back-to-back penalties.
They defended their line well
and a hunger in their game was
very evident.
Once the Eagles got some
possession they hit the ground
running, with the TRL colt of
the year, Connor Nicholls, darting
over to score near the posts
in the 21st minute, putting the
Eagles in front by 6.
This led to another two tries in
the next few sets by Chad Lebsanft
and Jai Purser.
At 18-0, the Warwick Cowboys
needed to be the next to
score to stay in the game. Just
before half time, they did just
that and went over in the corner
making the half time score 18-4.
Highfields second rower Zac
Brown stormed h over the line
in the first five minutes of the
second half and this really took
the remaining spark out of the
Cowboys.
The Eagles centre Chad Lebsanft
had a superb game, scoring
three tries and converting at 100
per cent leading to the victory
for the Highfields Eagles 36-
10, putting them into the Grand
Final against the Gatton Hawks
this Sunday.
The reserve grade Eagles have
been in fantastic form all year
and followed suit booking their
spot in next weekend’s grand final
with a superb 40-4 win over
last year’s premiers, the Gatton
Hawks.
The Eagles were outstanding,
leading by 16-0 in the first
15 minutes which certainly set
them up for the game.
The score remained the same
as they went into the break.
The second half started the
same for the determined Eagles
as they threw everything at Gatton
for which they had no answers.
They ran in another four tries
and with pinpoint conversions
by half Cory Haywood, they
ended the Hawks season adding
24 points in the second half.
There was not a bad player
in the Highfields Eagles team.
They all stood up and did their
job.
They possessed grit and determination
that showed they mean
business this season and they
will now go head-to-head with
a strong Wattles side on Sunday
which will be a very tough battle
Ḃut from their finals performances
thus far, the Highfields
Eagles are a side not to be taken
lightly.
Following the superb wins of
the under 19s and the reserve
grade, the A grade was one of
the most thrilling games of the
season.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t to be
three from three for Highfields,
going down to the Gatton Hawks
42-38. The game had it all!
Highfields were down to 12
men for most of the match after
centre Brenton Clement was sent
off for a tackle gone wrong.
One minute after this, five
eight Nick Bainbridge was sent
off to cool down for 10.
This left the Eagles fighting
extra hard with only 11 men on
the field.
The crowd thought that it was
over, only 33 minutes left on the
clock and 20 points behind.
To Highfields credit, they
found some Eagle spirit and courageously,
with only 11 and 12
men fought their way back into
the match, razzling the Hawks
with their player-coach, Jarrod
Lee, instigating a sense of calm
leading the Eagles to a few quick
tries.
With only a minute on the
clock the score was level at 38-
all, convincing spectators they
were going to see some overtime
come into play until Gatton
half, Haydan Lipp, in the dying
seconds of the game broke the
Highfields spirit and put his
winger over the line, taking the
win for the Hawks by 4.
This was to be the last game
for captain Cam Stewart and
Steve Lee, with both hanging up
the boots at the end of the season.
Not the result they were wanting
but they certainly went out
playing the match of the season.
