Senior Grade (Div 1)
Senior Grade travelled to Mike Kenny Oval, with still a chance of finals in the offering. Hence this was a game they just had to win. In very, very windy conditions this was a match that never rose to any great heights. And by half time the Rams were struggling to shake off their dogged and determined opposition. However, the side lifted n the second half to record what was in the end a reasonably comfortable 25 point victory.

Reserve Grade (Div 3)
Reserve Grade played its last game of the season by travelling to Monarch Oval to take on the bottom placed Campbelltown. As expected, the game didn't prove much of a test for the Rams, blowing the Blues away in the first term and only occasionally encountering significant opposition from then on - mainly in the second term. It finished a disappointing year (following on from a flag in 2012) on a positive note for the Ressies.

Best Players: J. Sultana, N. Rowley, M. Jackson, B. Robinson, S. Lockhart, B. Roney
Under 18s
The Under 18s made the trip to Henson Park on the Sunday to play finals aspirants Balmain in their final match of the season (the following week being a bye). The Rams couldn't get into the game and looked down and out at half-time. A few moves and a talking to by coach Rick Allen at half-time saw a different side emerge and a string of Penrith goals started to get the locals nervous. The sided couldn't maintain the push but matched their opponents in the second half to go down by 31 points.
Goal Kickers: J. Field 3, A. Ehrl 3, J. Durham , L. Davey

Ladies (Div 2)
The Ramettes contested an amazing First Semi-Final against UTS and emerged triumphant - but not before the match was drawn at the end of normal time and extra time had to be played.
Match report:
In the first semi final the girls had a tough fight on their hands against a UTS outfit that were last start winners against us. The weather conditions did not help either side as it was very windy all match. There was never really much in the match from start to finish as the extra time required at the end of the match due to scores being level will attest to. A rousing three quarter time speech from Vice Captain Nat Camilleri lifted the enthusiasm of all the girls and they continued that effort into extra time to secure the win for the Ramettes. There was, needless to say, a very loud rendition of the team song sung by all present.
Goal Kickers: J. Vella , J. Burnham , H. Short
