The win was revenge from the year before's result when the Goannas prevailed over the Tigers 34-14.

It was a golden period for the Tigers who made it a third consecutive grand final appearance in 1996 when they tasted defeated again, this time at the hands of the Koorawatha Jets, 32-22.

Since 1990 the Tigers have had to settle for the runner's up medal on four occasions.

These facts and the myriad of tall tales that go with them, plus many more tales dating from the 1920s, will be re-told when the Canowindra Tigers Rugby League Club celebrates its centenary this weekend.

The Canowindra Junior Tigers were the club's only side to take to the field last weekend taking on Molong at Cargo.

The match was declared a draw after officials made the decision to call a halt to proceedings after Tigers centre Callum Hogan suffered what appeared to be a serious hip injury.

The Tigers had lead the see-sawing match 12-10 at half time before Molong took the lead in the second half.

When time was called on the match Molong were leading 16-12 courtesy of too many errors from the young Tigers at crucial stages.

The Canowindra League Tag and First Grade sides both enjoyed last weekend off with the bye.

In first grade last weekend Trundle defeated Cargo 58-6, Grenfell Goannas defeated Condobolin 58-16, Manildra 26 were too good for Eugowra 14 and Peak Hill 28 defeated Molong 26.
