It’s been a while since the last update, so here’s how the Pirates have gone in the NSW Men’s Flag competition through October. Four more wins have the Pirates sitting at 5-5 for the season and fourth on the ladder, with some big scores against the Redbacks and Lions and a few tight ones that got away. See our schedule.
