Hawk Talk Vol. 8
KICK FOR YOUR CLUB
Finally!!! Kick For Your Club is done and dusted! The club did extremely well in finishing second in the nation! Unfortunately #1(South Barwon) were Victorian as well. Thanks to the loyal kickers, who spent endless hours keep the flag flying for the Hawks. The weight of numbers eventually caught up with us. In the end, we ended up with 670 kickers, who combined for a grand total of 6000 + km and a heap of individual prizes! Well done to everyone who contributed, especially those (you know who you are!) who did more than they should have!!!!
Finals Bound
A number of the Hawks’ teams are bound for finals’ glory. On the football front, the Seniors will contest their 7th finals series. We haven’t been too far off the mark over the last couple of years, coming R/U in 07 and 08, and 3rd last year. With the current list we have, the boys have got themselves primed for a good assault. Today’s game will be a great gauge as the Lions are also one of the contenders in ’10.
In the netball, B Grade needs to keep winning to hold onto their spot. A win today would guarantee a finals’ berth. C Grade will commence their assault from 6th (currently) or 5th depending on their results over the coming weeks. C Reserve, after a slow start, have stormed into contention, currently sitting 3rd. A win today would cement this and the girls can sit back and start focussing on planning their crack at premiership glory. The last Barooga side to have the opportunity to participate this year is our U12s. They have been very consistent over the course of the year and look as though they will finish in either 2nd or 3rd. Good luck to all these teams and thanks to all the players of the other Hawks’ side. Your efforts and commitment are very much appreciated!
Mitch Plays First Senior Game
Congratulations to Mitch Sim, who made his Senior debut against Finley last weekend. It’s a great effort to be given this chance, especially as Mitch is only 15 years of age!!!! Poor Mum (Kathryn) nearly needed CPR last Thursday when told of the call-up!!! In the end, he got a couple of touches and showed enough to suggest he is going to be a super player for the Hawks in years to come! Well done, young fella!

Jono, Knuckles and Nick Q Call It Quits
Good luck to Jono, Knuckles and Nick Q as they line-up for their last home game at the Nest! All three have been involved with Barooga Premiership teams over the years and have decided to call it a day (Knuckles’ second crack at it!). Congratulations to all three on their stellar careers. Great role-models as how to play with intensity, passion and putting everything on the line for the sake of bringing our great club out on top!!!! Well done!
