Tigers, Swans win Junior AFL grand finals

Tweed Tigers and Lismore Swans yesterday won their respective Northern Rivers Junior AFL grand finals.

U/12s Tweed Tigers 12 – 6 – 78 d Byron Magpies 2 – 2 – 14
 
Right from the beginning Tweed got on top of Byron and went to the 1st quarter break 6 goals up.

The Byron players knew from the start this game was going to be tough going up against the minor premiers for this season but continued to play as a team, determined to make Tweed play hard for this win.

Tweed stayed in control and didn’t allow Byron to even make a score at all in the 1st or 3rd quarters.
