Match Notes
Big League credits Mick Ryan with a try for Newtown however all the newspapers & RLW credit the try to Trevor Ryan. Also season records credit Trevor Ryan with 2 tries and he only scored in one other game so it seems correct to give him the try in this game.
Note: Forward packs are listed in reverse order.
