MATRAVILLE Sports High claimed their first Arrive Alive Cup with a convincing 32-10 grand final win over Patrician Brothers Blacktown at the Sydney Football Stadium today.

The pre-game favourites led 16-4 at halftime and went on with the job to prevail in the first grand final between two Sydney-based schools since 2004.

Matraville were led superbly by young Roosters five-eighth Ben Jones, who scored two tries and had a hand in several others in the six-tries-to-two win.

Winger Sanor Earl opened the scoring for Matraville in the eighth minute but Blacktown hit back quickly when prop Siosaia Vave stormed over next to the posts.

Matraville moved into the lead two minutes before the break thanks to a fine solo effort from Arana Tuamata, before Jones stepped his way over on the siren to extend their advantage.

Matraville didn't let up in the second half and struck again in the 39th minute when winger Dominique Peyroux got on the end of a fine Albert Kelly cross-field kick.

Second rower Petros Thanos barged over three minutes later, before hooker Jamie Buhrer grabbed a consolation for Blacktown and Jones scored his second to complete the emphatic win.

The win completed an impressive double for Matraville, only a relatively new sports high school, having also won the Waratah Shield rugby union competition this year.

Matraville have set the standard all season and are deserving National AAC Champions & good luck on the ASSRL tour to NZ.

Matraville are also red hot favourites for this years Elite schoolboys comptition, the CHS University Shield.

In the Uni Shield grand final this year we see mighty Matraville take on Hunter SHS after they disposed of Endeavour SHS a couple weeks ago up at Wyong.

Also the Grand Final of the WC CHS Buckley Shield (U14's) is on.

Michael Buettner Shield holders Westfields SHS will play defending Buckley Shield Champions, Hunter SHS on Tuesday at Energy Australia Stadium, Newcastle.

The day kicks off at 9:30 am, so for a day full of fantasic schoolboys rugby league, go to Energy Australia Stadium, Newcastle to watch these important Grand Finals.

ROAD SAFETY TAKES CENTRE STAGE AT ARRIVE ALIVE CUP LAUNCH
Story & Photo By : ARL
First Grade players from the Newcastle Knights, Manly Sea Eagles, Wests Tigers, Penrith Panthers and St George Illawarra Dragons joined The Hon Sandra Nori, Minister for Tourism and Sport and Recreation to launch the expansion of a highly successful program designed to deliver road safety messages to high school students.

The Challenging Attitudes to Risk or CAR Program, is run by the NSW Motor Accidents Authority (MAA) and involves first grade NRL players and NSW Police Youth Liaison Officers visiting local high schools and talk to students in Years 10, 11 and 12 to encourage safer driving.

The 2007 CAR Program was launched on Wednesday 21 March at Telstra Stadium with Newcastle Knight's Danny Buderus, Steve Menzies of the Manly Sea Eagles, Mark Gasnier of St George Illawarra, Rhys Wesser of Penrith Panthers and West Tigers Liam Fulton.

They players lent their full support to the program and hope that as rugby league players, they hope they can get through to some of these young drivers with the Arrive alive message.

Their message was clear - they want young drivers to slow down, take a break if tired, wear seatbelts and don't drink and drive. The boys were also joined by representatives from four Arrive alive Schoolboy Cup teams - Endeavour Sports High, Kogarah Marist College, St Dominics, Penrith and Matraville Sports High
