It was all Long Flat’s way in the first half at Long Flat on Saturday when Beechwood took to the field in opposition in the Hastings League rugby league competition.
Josh Henry opened the scoring in the fourth minute with a try, which Corey Milgate converted, as he did the Keith Hollis try seven minutes later.
Beechwood held on until five minutes before half time, when Tom Willemsen crossed, giving the Dragons their 16 half-time points.
The Long Flat Dragons made short work of the Port Macquarie Settlers in Sharks on the weekend winning 30-16.
The win saw the Dragons improve their standing in the Hastings League competition but they face bitter rivals the Comboyne Tigers this weekend.
The rivalry is one of the longest running in the competition with the Tigers gaining the upper hand most recently.
But the Dragons will be full of confidence following their recent victory.
At the half-time break though the game was still in the balance with Dragons taking a slender 12-10 lead.
SOUTH West Rocks Marlins gave the Long Flat Dragons the rounds of the kitchen during Round 4 of the 2014 season played at Long Flat.
Come on, give it a go. Just about anyone can play tennis.
