Redfern All Blacks victory

The South Sydney District Junior Rugby Football League is an affiliation of junior clubs in the inner-southern and south-eastern suburbs.

It was fantastic to see the A-grade grand final at Redfern Oval on Sunday August 27. The game was an epic contest between the Matraville Tigers (2022 premiers) and the mighty Redfern All Blacks. Congratulations to Redfern who won in the final minute with a brilliant try to winger O’Shay Tyerman – the play was set up superbly by second rower Jay Belgrove who landed a perfect chip and chase before slipping the ball to Tyerman.

The final score: 20-18. In other rugby league news, the Rabbitohs have failed to make the finals – a confounding and disappointing end to the season.

A pathway out of native forest logging

Most of the forests and woodlands that existed prior to European invasion in the lands now known as NSW are gone. Numerous threatened species, such as gliders, owls, koalas and quolls, are at heightened risk due to logging. Bushfires are becoming more severe because of climate change, and logged native forests are more flammable than unlogged forests. Native forest logging mostly produces woodchips and pulp rather than higher value sawn timber and operates at a loss to the taxpayer.
