Amazing that a bloke who played so few games for us is still so fondly remembered for those few games in 2017 but especially the burying of Brad Crouch. We will always have great affection for the bloke for so many reasons but most of all because he is one of us!

Was at the game today
Towner is on the Gold Coast CoVid list
Awesome effort by Jacob today
Just plays inside F50
Obviously not as fit as he was but still covers the ground .
Think he kicked 5 in 15 minutes in the 3rd Q

I know they got beat last week but they played much better today and didn’t over use the ball Southport

I’m glad they got Towner in to do the presentations. Recognises his efforts for the RFC, especially 2017 as testament to the esteem in which he’s held.

It’s the ultimate example of playing your role and plugging away and being ready in case an opportunity comes up.

Geez didn’t he have the hottest purple patch at the back of 2017 and first couple of games of 2018. Couldn’t miss.
