Pete Neyland and Greg Webster deserve a wrap the playing surface and surrounds are as good as hey ever have been and the venue was in first class condition.

A crowd of 600 plus were on hand to watch Justin Carney make his return to the Tigers colours.

While it was only a trial there were certainly some good signs there and he will definitely have something to work with.

New signing Ash 'the flash' Widders gave the Tigers a faithful taste of what to expect. He scored four tries with his pace almost impossible to defend against. He is blessed with a knack of being in the right place at the right time and whenever there is the slightest opportunity he is on the spot. 

We lacked speed last season, but with the addition of Flash and the return of Daniel Stanley and Sam Simmons the Tigers will be fairly potent on the edges. Big Crete Waaka looks as fit as he ever has, he was powerful on Saturday night and will only get better with a couple more runs under his belt. Hammond was another standout.

In the middle big Simon and Bubba were solid and you could see the boys have been putting in at training. They both played big minutes in fairly warm conditions. 

Justin has got the boys fitter at this time of year than they have ever been, and if they continue to turn ip and put in I'm sure the results will follow. 

The Reggies took on Trangie and both sides put on an impressive performance, for so early in the season. 

The lead chopped and changed throughout and it was probably a fair result when the scores were locked at 16-all at full time. 

The u/18's took on the Cobar Roosters and showed enough to suggest coach Hedges will have something to work with.

All the boys ripped in with big Tom Fuller and Sam Canty doing plenty in the middle and laid the platform for the 22-12 victory. 

Old Egg Quarmby showed his skill as a talent scout producing young Alex Don. Alex is the grandson of former Nyngan man Bede Don and great nephew of Norma Jeffery. Norm was quick to claim Alex after his man of the match performance. 

Coach Aimee Rixon would have been pleased with her girls in their first hit out. We started a bit slow but came home strongly to win the second half. 

The girls have got good numbers ad all signs are we should be in for a good year. 

A big thank you to the Nyngan crowd, the atmosphere they created was unreal for a trial game. 

Anyone who is interested in joining the old boys and supporters club can drop into Nyngan Innovations or contact Red Waterhouse.

Go the Tigers.
