Having lost its past four games against quality opposition by three, four, six and four points respectively, the Melbourne Rebels rewarded their loyal fans with a well fought win against the Stormers, their first win over South African opposition after 11 attempts.
Given the tough & at times heartbreaking losses over the past few weeks for the Rebels celebrations after the siren were deservedly jubilant after their 30-21 victory.
Just picked up a copy of Australia’s top-selling Pro Photography magazine ‘Capture’ to see that i have been named amongst ‘Australia’s Best Emerging Photographers’ in the Sports Photography category.
The judging panel consisted of photographers Adam Pretty, Delly Carr, Steve Christo, Tim Clayton & Ted Grambeau, all of whom i’ve long admired & used as inspiration in a effort to improve as a Sports Photographer. If im honest being acknowledged by the calibre of this panel is more satisfying that the commendation itself.
Congrats to all the winners in all the categories, some amazing work by this countries top emerging photographers.

Melbourne Storm still remain unbeaten after holding off a determined Warriors side, who kept the Storm at bay for the majority of the game. A 72nd minute try by Will Chambers and another try by Billy Slater 2 minutes later closed off a focused Warriors side. Craig Bellamy’s side retained the Michael Moore Trophy while Ryan Hoffman was awarded the Spirit of ANZAC Medal.
