25.01.2022 Time to end the night with a bit of Roaming Pig!

24.01.2022 It's game day for our Sisters! Our women's team will play Glenmore today in the 2020 Grand Final. The Roo girls have steamrolled into the Grand Final with convincing wins over BITS and Panthers. Glenmore has been a force to be reckoned with over the last few seasons, reclaiming their top position from Panthers this year. They've put some massive scores on the board, dominating several teams. Our girls, guided by Rumpfy and Freddy, have formed a strong side with lots of new... young talent this season. They've played hard footy with lots of determination and passion. They've got what it takes to bring home the silverware today so let's all get behind them! Bounce is at 3:10pm at Swan Park, see you there! #feartheroo
