Girls are rugby champions

The final score placed them in the top four teams in the state.

The game was tough on the college forward pack with both sides providing equal push at the ruck, according to campus principal Ms Pam McAlister.

"Our forwards each had a hard game, providing support at the breakdown and making some well-earned metres in attack.

"The Brisbane Water backline, with their speed and agility, outclassed the smaller Gorokan team and established a hefty lead early on.

"Coach's points went to Chelsea Campbell, Hayley Jones and Stacey Markham."

The team consisted of Carla Alexander, Samantha Bainbridge, Chelsea Campbell, Stevie Cummins Amanda Dingle, Megan Ely, Toni Gassman, Melissa Halstead, Sarah Hewson,

Molly Jeffries, Hayley Jones, Nicola Kay, Megan Langford, Kayla Lewis, Britney Logan, Stacey Markham, Kimberly Moseley, Jade O'Grady, Sally Oman and Caty Walker.
