A brave effort with a VERY UNDERMANNED team- 8 of our regular players had other commitments.

We were only able to put 16 players on the oval – St Pats in good sportsmanship matched our numbers and had the headache of managing a large bench (so they had fresh legs). We lost Jordan Harding very early in the second quarter with a nasty ankle injury. No broken bones but ligament damage that will take time to heal. Great effort for the day Jordan and we wish you a speedy recovery.

This left us with only 15 on the field no subs and a team with 16 on the field and 8 on their bench so to loose by only on point although disappointing was a fantastic effort.

Shannon Woods had an outstanding game from start to finish; Dylan Whitby- Taylor (watch this name) does some amazing things. Declan Parsons worked hard all day. Shane Hatch has slotted nicely into our team and bagged himself a couple of goals. Tim Hamilton who I have watched for 8 year has stepped up so well this year and has taken on a defensive role with great maturity.
