The Thornburgh boys have been competing in the Confraternity Carnival at Ipswich. On Monday the team had 2 games. They narrowly went down to Faith Lutheran 10-6 with Damien Bige named Man of the Match. In the second game against Our Lady of the Sacred Heart from PNG, Thornburgh had a win 22-4. Fred Bulsey was the Man of the Match.First up Tuesday morning the Thornburgh boys clashed with St Thomas More . While I have it on good authority that it was a good match, the boys went down 24-12. Man of the Match was Damien Bige. This put the team in the Bowl Division of the competition where they came up against Marist Emerald where unfortunately they went down 24-4. Man of the Match was Lachlan Corrigan. It was great to see Mr and Mrs Fairbairn supporting the team as well as past principal Ross Thompson.
