As far as we can tell, it's been close to 20 years since the Renegades Honours mens team enjoyed finals success! But after a dominating season where they held top position on the ladder from round 1, this years team has finally broken the premiership drought in a thrilling 5 set match versus Monash University!

Between Gus and myself, we have been trying to work out when the Men's 'first' team last tasted finals success. I joined the club in 1983 and then made the first team in 1988. As my memory stands, I watched two losing grand finals from '83 to '87 and played in three losses from '88 to '93.

I know I'm starting to repeat myself ... but I don't care. Every Renegade - past, present or future - needs to come along to the grand final this Saturday at 2pm.

Unfortunately the Honours Men chose a bad time for their first loss to Monash, going down in 5 uneven, topsy turvy sets on Saturday (19-25 25-19 18-25 25-14 15-6 ).
