The last game of the season

The last game of the season today ... and the Mustangs had a win ! Suffice to say that Mummy, for one, will be very pleased to have a break from both the early and incredibly muddy Saturday mornings that control our household throughout winter - roll on summer !

In his after-match report, Coach Kevin did a 'skit' and spoke as if the Mustangs had played the All Blacks with a score of 50-0 to the Mustangs ! Kevin placed Joshua as the No. 8 against Kieran Reid, a formidable All Black, and the report read ...

Joshua Turnbull packed down today at No. 8 in today's brutal walkover of the All Blacks. Joshua hit every ruck and maul, wrestling for the ball with enormous strength, easily outplaying Kieran Reid. He foraged for the ball at every chance he had and could barely stand at the end, having played himself to a standstill".

What a wonderful end to the season ...

Hard to see but Huddy joined in on the final Mustangs chant before the last game - he too put his paw in the air, albeit with the help of Daddy

And Josh passes to Tomo ...


Josh and Tomo racing along, eyes on the opposition and the ball

And Josh's last tackle for the season - take him down !

Cheers, albeit with a hot chocolate ! PS And thank you Huddy, for being the best mascot a team could ask for - you have come along and played in the mud with the boys EVERY Saturday.
