Schoolboy Cup Live Stream: Mabel Park v Wavell State High, Langer Trophy, Round 2

Mabel Park has caused a Langer Trophy boilover, knocking off heavyweights Wavell and spoiling the school’s momentous homecoming. Watch the REPLAYS now.

Mabel Park are quickly asserting themselves as the giant killers this season, after defying a raucous home crowd to pull off a 16-6 Langer Trophy boilover at Wavell.

Mabel Park withstood a pressure-cooker second half where the trailing Wavell, cheered on by a gala homecoming crowd, were throwing everything at them.

It was Mabel’s defence that earned the win, the visitors limiting a heavyweight Wavell team to just one try.

That is a feat in itself and centre Lehi Thomas was one of many tackling heroes.

When it mattered most, Thomas made back-to-back bone rattling hits to repel Wavell who had just over six minutes to conjure two tries.

Earlier, Will Nati of Wavell and Tyreece Tovao of Mabel exchanged try-saving tackles on their wing in what was an enthralling first half of footy.

Nati, clobbering his rival into touch and Tovao, holding up his opponent over the line in a display of sheer strength.

Centre Jaycob Kingston-Francis was quick to clean up a loose grubber to score Mabel Park’s opening try, before fullback Ryan McCann and five-eighth Lachlan Buchbach combined to make it a 12-point advantage for the visitors soon after.

In the second half, Wavell finally got some ascendancy, forward movers Maddox Goodwin, Lauloto Salei and fullback John Paul Doveski building momentum which laid the platform for hooker Harrison Hill to pounce.

All the Norths Devils dummy-half needed was a split second near the line and with that, he found man mountain Kobi Floro on a switch play who drove his way across the line.

That try was immediately erased when Mabel’s Xyon Purcell struck, creating a 10 point buffer which remained the same until the final whistle blew.
