All five Sea Eagles AFL teams braved the wet and windy conditions for the home crowd on the weekend with some great results. Lots of supporters were out and about also making the most of having footy back at The Nest, enjoying the new rendition of the Sea Eagles Club song multiple times with wins throughout the day.
Sea Eagles Senior Men clashed with Mackay City Hawks using the wind to their advantage in the first quarter, able to hold that lead for the remainder of the game running out winners 57 - 32.
Sea Eagles Senior Women were victorious in the rematch with Moranbah, running hard in the second quarter to put goals on the board eventually taking the win 32 - 8.
Moranbah came out firing against Sea Eagles Under 17s and although Sea Eagles were able to improve on last week's performance and stay in reach, the final term saw Moranbah pull away to post a 37 point win.
Sea Eagles Under 15s were eager to take on Moranbah again after a close match last week, however Moranbah took off in the first quarter and Sea Eagles were unable to make it back with 23 - 49 the final score.
Under 13s Sea Eagles went out early in the ever changing conditions to beat Moranbah Bulldogs for the second week running, in what ended as a close match 20 - 16 after Bulldogs used the wind in the final term to make it interesting.
This coming week four teams head to Mackay with U13s and U15s headed Mackay Magpies and Senior Men and Women at Eastern Swans.
