Good to see the 2’s getting off to a good start in the 1st quarter again, and realising how this quarter can set up the game. It’s been along time since the team would have scored 20 goals and the best thing about the game, was that all players contributed and they played a consistent 4 quarters. It makes a huge difference to the team when you can get results from your forward thrusts as they have over the last few weeks, and you can see the confidence growing in the team. While we are sitting in 5th spot on the ladder, the boys will need to keep winning to stay there. Congratulations to Poops on his 300th game for the club, and it was a fitting win for this legend of the club. Another highlight was for Gravy to get a stint up forward and actually kick a goal. It was very hard to pick the best, as it could have been a number of players . Best Players were: Butters, Barney, Bowlesy, Shaun, Jonesy and Wrighty
The Seniors took over from the 2’s and came out and played some really good , hard running footy . They caught the visitors off guard, with a dominant display, particularly in the 2nd quarter with a 9 goal haul. With the backline continuing to play well, and the onballers and centre line getting their hands on the ball, it was up to forwards to make sure the score went on the board, and this they did. With young Jim Frawley relishing the stint up forward, and kicking 4 goals in the 1st half (before he received a heavy knock to the shoulder resulting in a broken collarbone , possibly a season ending injury), while other multiply goal scorers were Matty, H , Sean, Ollie, Pete and BT. As well as the win being important for the club, the big score was just as important to lift our percentage as we strive to break into the five.
Best Players: Scotty, Eddie, B.T., Dave, Jason & Ollie
