Last time they met: Round 2, 2014. Harrow-Balmoral 22.21 (153) d Noradjuha-Quantong 9.6 (60).
NORADJUHA-QUANTONG will host its second premiership reunion of the season on Saturday against Harrow-Balmoral - and is hoping for a better performance than at its first clash.
The Bombers will commemorate the 30th anniversary of Noradjuha’s 1984 premiership, which will also recognise the nine senior premierships won by Noradjuha between World War II and its merger with Quantong in 1997.
At the Quantong 20-year premiership reunion in round nine, the Bombers led early before fading away to lose a three-point thriller to Taylors Lake.
Coach Jarred Combe said the team could not produce another disappointing performance at a reunion.
“Harrow-Balmoral completely outplayed us last time we played them, so that’s something we’ll have to rectify if we want to win on Saturday,” he said.
Harrow-Balmoral coach Brent Forsyth said a few of his players were still dealing with niggling injuries, but the week off had done the whole team good.
He said the Roos expected a much stiffer contest from the Bombers this time after easily beating them in round two.
“Their record doesn’t really do justice to the quality players they have in their side, so we’ll be wary of them,” he said.
