It is a pleasure to see our players representing both our club and our Sub-Union once again this year.

Jason Allen, Mitchell Griffin, and Carlos Allen—well done on representing Eastern Pirates and CBOP with distinction.

A special mention to Jason Allen, our leading try scorer for Eastern Pirates, who crossed for the match-winning try in the final minute. An outstanding finish to the game.

Congratulations to all involved;

Excellent work, gentlemen.
