FINGAL Bay Rugby League Club are one win away from a grand final berth if they can defeat West Wallsend in the semi final at Lakeside this Saturday. The game starts at 4pm.
The Bomboras stormed into the finals with emphatic 28-18 win over Stockton Sharks last Saturday. It was a dominant performance by the hard working forward pack that had the Sharks on the back foot. Despite taking their foot off the pedal in the second half, the Bomboras’ rock solid defence and team spirit got the job done. Fullback Denam Glasson sustained a back injury late in the game and will miss the semi final.
