Hoskins Hat-Trick Highlights Another Dominant Kangaroos Performance

It wasn't like the 72-point thrashing that marked the return of Brothers to the first grade competition but Kangaroos put on another dominant display against their crosstown rivals.

Ollie Hoskins got things rolling for Kangaroos when he went through a massive gap to score after five minutes.

It set the tone for the rest of the clash and gave a big contingent of players from the club's 1994 premiership something to cheer about at Equex Centre on Saturday.

Brothers struggled to contain the Kangaroos attack conceding eight tries in the 38-6 loss, all while failing to make the most of their own chances.

Injured captain-coach Nathan Rose thought it was a step back after Kangaroos took a 38-4 win over Tumut last week.

However was still pleased to take another win leading into an important clash with Gundagai.

"I think we played a lot of good footy but a lot of silly footy in patches as well," Rose said.

"Coming off last week, when we were pretty good for the majority of the game, so moving on to next week's tough game we will need to be that together for 80 minutes."
