Overview:
For obvious reasons, the game turned nasty with high flying tackles and very aggressive tackles towards the end.

The reaction from SHACK was effective and almost instant.

In the second half, SHACK was dominant although Amus College’s defence worked tirelessly to avoid further conceding.
