GNFL Results Round 8

Chapman Valley further staked their claim for a finals berth on the weekend, while Rover and Brigades went down in thrillers to Towns and Mullewa.

The Valley jumped out of the blocks at Nabawa on Saturday, though had to hold firm as Northampton fought back after half time. Rover almost pulled off a big upset against arch rival Towns, before the Bulldogs cam away with a five point victory amid much controversy, with a spectator melee affecting the finish of the contest.

And at Mullewa on Sunday, the Saints came from behind against Towns to snatch a two point victory.
