UNDEFEATED EAGLES SPANK INJURY DEPLETED TWO BLUES A host of injuries to key personnel prior to the match saw a number of late changes, and further injuries to lock Aaron Teariki and Fullback Sitivien Matanayawa made it Mission Impossible against the Undefeated Peninsula Eagles in Round 15 of the Sydney Shield, but the Cabramatta Two Blues lost no fans despite going down 48-14. In the end, the team ran out of troops and missed the impact of key players, but Coach Jason Hedges couldn’t fault his sides commitment despite the set backs. “We started well and when we got into the grind, we just couldn’t match it with them,” he said. “The boys tried hard but came up against a red hot team that played as we expected them to, like a side that hadn’t lost a game. “I am disappointed with the result, but given the circumstances surrounding todays game, its hard to be critical of our effort,” added Hedges. Five Eighth Luke Lavendar was again outstanding for Cabramatta, while Ned Stevenson and Peter Viane also had fantastic games. The two blues venture to Creswood Oval on Sunday at 2pm to take on arch rivals the Hills Bulls in a local derby not to be missed. Both sides are jostling for positions inside the top 8 and a victory is essential for both sides if they are to press for top 4. Tries – Peter Viane (2), Mouhamad Mahfoud. Goals- Mouhamad Mahfoud 1 from 3.
