The top of the ladder Goldies have suffered their first defeat of the 2025 season in a very close game against the Temora Tuskers last Saturday.

The final score at the Temora Recreation Ground was 32-31 with a penalty goal securing the win for the Tuskers.

"The men struggled against a very tough and skilled Temora side who kicked a winning penalty from about 42m out right at the end of the game," the Boorowa Rugby Club said.

Tries for the Goldies were made by Michael Berry, Toby McGrath x2 and two others scored with Josh Carmody converting three for the side.

Though the loss is bitter, the boys remain strong at the top of the ladder and will be looking to bounce back this weekend when they play at home against the West Wyalong Weevils.
