14 Aug 09 | TEN weeks ago the title defence of the Inverell Highlanders appeared in disarray. The team lacked cohesion and the results were not coming.
Some believed it was a hangover from winning the CNRU title in 2008 and maybe that much was true but what many don’t know aside from the playing roster and those close to the club is that this side is built on tougher stuff. Words like character and resilience.
14 Aug 09 | ONE thing will not be lost on the Tigers over the next few weeks and that is the pain of losing last year’s grand final to Glen Innes.

Believe you me they have the troops to do it.
14 Aug 09 | THEY have been one of the standout teams all year. Scoring 96 tries and only conceding 56 in what has been a great season.
