Despite having different players each week, the Strait Sharks still put up a good contest against the Rock Scorpions in the wooden spoon play-off. The Sharks started strong scoring two tries and a penalty in the first half, however the Scorpions were able to score a try and convert it before the end of the first half bringing the half time score to 13-7. Both sides played well but the Scorpions had the upper hand, scoring two successive tries due to some week defending. Both tries were converted and the Rock Scorpions won the match 13-21.
Both teams should be applauded for their valiant efforts and for fielding teams which had many newcomers to the game. The Scorpions in particular have brought many enthusiastic raw talent, which improved considerably as the tournament progressed. The end result being that Nolan Romero was awarded most improved player of the tournament, in the night's award ceremony.
Well done to both teams on a valiant effort and we are certain both teams have the potential to make it to the Grand Final next year.
