In winning 36-20 on the road on Saturday, Gunnedah won back the Boyde Campbell Cup.

It was sweet revenge, after Boggabri beat Gunnedah 32-28 at Kitchener Park on June 12.

"When you get a good win over a quality side it makes it even better," Gunnedah coach Mick Schmiedel told Group 4 Media after the seven-tries-to-four triumph.

"They were in the top four, so it was nice to beat them.
