The junior Rhinos took on the undefeated Browns Plains Bears in the first game of the day and were able to quickly get the scoring started when Ryen Gillen completed a 30 yard pass to Scott Lehmann for a 6-0 lead. The Rhinos defense was able to get the ball back with Jono Mihalec picking off a Bears pass to give the Rhinos excellent field position. The offense was able to drive the ball down the field with Scott Lehmann taking a reverse 30yards for his second TD of the game and a 12-0 lead. The Bears challenged the Rhinos in the closing minutes of the half however the defense held them out to take a 12-0 lead into the break.
The second half started with the Rhinos hungry to score more points mindfull of a Bears comeback, Michael Lynagh ran the ball in for a TD with Lehmann getting the extra points to extend the lead to 20-0. The defense then controlled the Bears offense forcing them to punt giving the ball back to the offense which was able to again drive down the field this time with Ben Stower running in for the score with Nathan Wynder getting the extra points to make the score 28-0 which ended the scoring for the day, the win keeps the juniors in the top 4 and is a great boost as they take on the only undfeated team next week in the Gold Coast Stingrays.
