The Central Coast Rugby League season ended in a truly passionate weekend after an equally passionate season marred by controversy in the senior men’s competition.
The men’s first grade competition was won by the Erina Eagles 12-6 against their arch-rivals Toukley in a battle royale at Morry Breen Oval in Wyong.
It was an historic win for the Erina club, bringing the silverware home for the first time in 33 years.
Not everyone was happy with the result after the season was peppered with sideline scuffles, injuries a-plenty, match cancellations and accusations of skullduggery.
The other major competitions in the league were also decided on Saturday, September 14 in what was described by attendees as a well organised afternoon of finals football in beautiful Spring weather.
The women’s tackle competition was won by Berkeley Vale Panthers 16-12 against The Entrance Tigers, while the women’s tag grand final was taken out by the Terrigal Wamberal Sharks 16-14 against the Erina Eagles.
The senior men’s reserve grade final was taken out by The Entrance Tigers 30-0 against Erina.
The open men’s grand final was won by the Ourimbah Wyoming Magpies 22-20 against the Wyong Roos.
In the under-19 men’s competition, the Terrigal Wamberal Sharks defeated The Erina Eagles 16-14.
