The encounter between Swifts and Brothers was called off 13 minutes before the regular finishing time after Bluebirds frontrower Luke O’Doherty was unable to move.
Premium Content LOOK out if Swifts speedster Godfrey Okot gives up the pre-game chips and gets serious. He might score even more than the hat-trick of tries he produced in the Bluebirds latest 60-22 A-Grade victory over Norths. I ve never really taken care of my body, Okot said, after his latest scintillating performance. When I see a gap, I just try and launch for that line. Whatever happens, you get through or you get whacked but you get back up and play. Just the love of the game. In his new team environment, Okot is happy to continue sharing in some wonderful club spirit.
Anthony Breeze THE Ipswich Rugby League fraternity and Brothers Football Club were saddened early in the week when news came through that Ian Rodgo Rodgers had passed away after a long, tough fight. Everyone that knew this great man always had positive things to say about him. He will be a big loss to all those who had the honour of meeting or working with him. Rodgo had dedicated his early life to touch football where he is a life member. A huge part of his life was his beloved Brothers Football Club where he also is a life member.

Subscriber only GUTSY Ipswich Diggers halfback Jacob Teevan struggled to talk for much of the weekend after copping a nasty knock to the throat. However, he managed to play in both Diggers battles during the latest round of Chairman s Challenge rugby league encounters against Brisbane sides. Although the Diggers Open combination lost 50-12 to Brisbane Red on Saturday and 44-12 to Brisbane Blue this afternoon, Teevan enjoyed the Ipswich team experience despite his injury setback. It s always good going against some of those top Brissie teams, he said, lacing on the Diggers boots for the first time in senior football.
