N.P.F.C v Mt Eliza 21/3/15
Thank you to Mt Eliza football club for the game on Saturday and hospitality after the game. We hope to return the offer next year! All the best for season 2015.
The seniors came up against a well disciplined side. We struggled to get the ball over the centre. Our back line worked tirelessly to set up the play to move forward only to have the ball repel back straight away. We can learn a lot from this game. We have full use of the ground now, so let’s work on mistakes, get behind Harmit and turn it around for next week. Score Mt Eliza 14-9-93 N.P 4-5-29
A undermanned reserves side fought well all day only going down by 11 points. We had 6 boys from the 19s come up to fill in and play the whole 6 quarters . There were some great passages of football throughout the 3 quarters. Let’s put the call out to the other fella’s to get them down to training. It’s going to be a good year. Thanks to both Waldron boys McNiece, Robinson, Punshon and George. Score Mt Eliza 9-4-58 N.P 7-5-47.
19s started the day off with 18 players we had a few no shows. Boys if you cannot get there please let us know and we will make sure you get there. Thanks to Naldrett, Coppin and Noonan for filling in. Our fitness is not the best as there have been only a handful of players that have done the preseason, the rest of the players need to start doing extra work away from the ground. Our ball skills were ordinary, these are skills we need to work on. Let’s take on board our mistakes and learn from them. Score Mt Eliza 10-7-67 N.P 4-2-26.
