ALBURY Thunder ace Ben Jeffery has described the club’s 41-point blitz of yesterday’s Group 9 grand final as its best performance of the season.
The Border outfit simply dominated flag favourite Southcity in the biggest game of the season as it claimed a hat-trick of premierships for the first time.
“That’s the best we played all year,” Jeffery said.
“We knew we had to turn up and play 80 minutes and I think we did that.
“In the end, the score showed what we can do.
“From start to finish — we were great.”
Jeffery scored the first two tries of the game and played a starring role in the win.
“I’m just happy to do my part for the team,” he said.
“Without them, I wouldn’t even be on this paddock.
“We all play as a team and individuals mean nothing when you get a prize like this.
“It’s great.”
The star fullback will replace Josh Cale as coach next season and he wasted little time issuing a warning for the rest of the competition for next year.
“After three in a row we are a powerhouse in Group 9 and we want to stay that way,” he said.
