The combined Barellan and Coleambally juniors, the Three Blues, broke through for their first win of the season.

Following the Barellan Seniors to Temora on a blustery day for AFL, the Under-17 boys started well into a strong breeze with James Buchanan dropping back from seniors having an immediate impact. The belief the boys got early held them in good stead and they led 44-3 at half time. With James Buchanan, Liam Horton, Bailey Winter and Nick Graham doing well through midfield and James Clarke dominating the ruck the boys were up and about.

Strong contributions came from Chase Neutze Kurt Hickey off halfback made scoring hard for the Marrar Bombers all day. The boys ran out winners 10.11.76 to 3.7.25. Both towns in Barellan and Coleambally are stoked for the boys to be rewarded for the big effort they have been putting in.
