A Bega win would statistically knock the Lions out of contention so senior coach Matt Fleet expects the visitors will play with an intensity and desperation not yet seen by the Bombers.
The game starts at 7pm at the Bega Showground, click here for the full preview.
2. Game On at Fling
See the young members of YFling in action in their latest production.
Game On’s movement motives have come from children’s game ideas like Twister, snap, hop-scotch and chess.
All cast members have had an opportunity to contribute to the creative content, and with scenes like Super Mario Brothers there is no shortage of fun on stage!
