Good news: Harper and Tane officially welcome their first baby, but the baby has a brain problem that requires immediate surgery.
Home and Away has teased the return of the River Boys in its latest Australian episode, as a new street car racing storyline begins.
In tonight’s episode, Rose (Kirsty Marillier) told Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) that she had received numerous noise complaints from residents of Mangrove River, informing her that the infamous River Boys gang had expanded their activities into street car racing.
Cash didn’t seem too surprised, pointing out that “with Mangrove River station closed, there’s nobody monitoring the boys.”
The closure of Mangrove River’s police station means that the infamous gang have become a problem for Yabbie Creek Police, and Senior Constable Rose has been left to deal with the mess.

Cash was briefly taken aback when Rose pondered if she could talk him into heading to Mangrove River and checking out the situation himself, but she quickly clarified that she was joking.
“With your history with the boys, it’s best not to inflame things,” she added with a smile, leaving Cash wondering what had put her in such a cheery mood.
Cash was caught up in last year’s big River Boy drama, when he was transferred to Mangrove River Police Station and experienced first-hand the hold that the surf gang had over the town.
He was shocked to discover that his sister Felicity’s (Jacqui Purvis) new boyfriend Rory Templeton (Joshua Orpin) was in fact the gang’s current leader.
The story came to an end when Rory was arrested, after Cash and colleague Jo Devlin (Ariadne Sgouros) found evidence that Rory’s River Boy colleague Dingo (JK Kazzi) was responsible for the death of Franklin McGrath, one of Jo’s former colleagues.
