This week both teams ventured down the Princess Freeway to Corio.

In the morning, the division 2 Rangers2 faced the home town Bay City Buccaneers and put in a valiant effort to restrict the Buccs to only 38 points.

In the afternoon, the division 1 Rangers encountered the division 2 leading Northern Raiders and celebrated Steve Churchill and Richie Garraway’s 150th games with a comprehensive 53-0 victory.

Churchy finished with 3 touchdowns, Richie helped himself to a rushing touchdown, Neale Oliver also had two receiving touchdowns and Nathan Pasco rushed for a score as well. Ian Box completed the rout, returning a punt 80 yards to the house behind a massive block by Nick Johnston down the Rangers sideline.

Next week we do it all again in Geelong, with the Rangers playing the Buccs in what will effectively book a place in the Vic Bowl for the winner at 10:30am, whilst in the afternoon the Rangers2 face the Monash Barbarians.

Players, supporters enter from Bogong Street Corio.

The Junior Rangers team has kicked off their 2010 campaign with a brilliant win against the Bay City Buccaneers 30-12 at home in Croydon.

Jordan Beck caught a pass from quarterback Michael Apeness on a 62 yard strike to extend the lead to 14-6 with the 2 point conversion on the back of his own QB sneak. Beck followed this up with a 6 yard run in the 3rd quarter to make it 22-12 after a failed 2 point conversion.

QB Michael Apeness continued his great game with a 5 yard completion to Josh Petracca and Beck ran in the 2 point conversion to make it 30-12 in the end.
