City hold Aggies scoreless to extend winning run

The premiers made it four wins from as many games this season in the process.

They've only conceded 22 points so far, while scoring 211 themselves.

Keeping Aggies at bay, despite having two yellow cards in the game, was the most pleasing aspect of the 55-0 win for coach Ben Schreiber.

"The boys played pretty well and showed a lot of grit to hold them to nil," Schreiber said.

"They kept coming at us all day as they're a really enthusiastic young side.

"They were relentless but we were fortunate enough to be able to stick to our structures and show a good display of defence to hold them out."

Discipline is one thing Schreiber is still looking to improve with Dylan McLachlan and Tom Blanch both spending time on the sidelines.

However Schreiber was thrilled with Blanch's performance after linking with the club from Port Macquarie this season.

"Despite his time on the sideline Tom Blanch really stood up for us," he said.

"Not only at scrum time but his defence and his ball carrying prowess was really impressive."

Wagga City got through the clash unscathed but are looking to use the bye to refresh while Ag College will need to regroup ahead of their clash with Griffith.

The Blacks made it two wins on the trot with an 18-0 win over CSU at Beres Ellwood Oval on Saturday courtesy of three second half tries.

The Blacks led 3-0 after an early penalty goal but struggled to put Reddies away until late.

Meanwhile Albury bounced back from their first loss of the season, at the hands of the Blacks, for a 36-17 win over Tumut at Murrayfield on Saturday.

Coach James Kora was pleased with how the side responded after a narrow loss.

However he's looking for plenty of improvement from their scrum after Tumut dominated that aspect of the game and scored all of their points there.

"Tumut dominated us up front but we managed to have them out wide," Kora said.

"We've got a lot to work on with our scrum.

"Our scrummaging let us down big time but our line outs and defence kept us in the game.

"Tumut are a very good scrummaging side."

Kora was pleased with how they hit back but was disappointed with the lack of the patience after going out to a handy lead.

Albury are bracing for another big test when they host Waratahs on Saturday while CSU head to Tumut.
