Warriors Chasing Initial Victory

Specialistsin

Rugby league returns to Clifton’s Platz Oval on Sunday when local heroes the Wattles Warriors take the field against Toowoomba’s Southern Suburbs Tigers.

Given the Tigers are not fielding an Under 19 team in this 2023 Toowoomba Rugby League season, the program will consist of just two games being Reserve and A Grade.

Wattles ‘Stillwater Pastoral Company’ open line up have yet to post a positive result as the TRL season opens, a situation Coach Travis Burns wants to see addressed this weekend.

Wattles line up has certainly suffered some losses from the premiership winning combination of last year, but the coach feels his team can built into a force to be reckoned with on the back of talent, experience and youth.

Sunday’s contest with the Tigers will be the Warriors first outing approaching full strength.

Reserve Grade -

The ‘Tony Morris Tiling’ Wattles reserve grade side are focused on a third successive win in what has been a shining opening to their season.

Coach Tony Morris couldn’t be happier with team performance and results to date.

His Warriors also still have some quality players in contention to return to the reserve grade line-up as the A Grade side takes shape.

It’s been a consolidated effort by Morris’ outfit, keeping the game simple, executing the game plane and limiting errors.

With the experience of veteran campaigners of the calibre of Tim Hentschel and Aaron Scheid, along with skipper Jordan Henry and Garth Lonergan and string of talented youth, the Warriors have taken the first vital steps towards another Grand Final appearance.
