Round One of the George Tooke Shield on Saturday saw the Boorowa Rovers get off to a great start in season 2025 with a crushing 68-18 win over the UC Stars.

In front of a good crowd at the Boorowa Showground, the Stars led early by 12-6 before the Rovers clicked into gear.

Boorowa fullback, Austin Power was electric in attack scoring six tries of his own in the twelve tries to three romp.

There were sensational players all over the park with the young forward pack for Boorowa looking impressive.

The UC Stars never stopped trying but injuries and a rampant Boorowa attack proved too much.
