The Seniors for the first time this year played four solid quarters of football. What was very pleasing to everyone who was at the game, was that when Hoppers mounted a challenge in the 3rd quarter, the boys kicked right away and put the game beyond doubt.
The Reserves thrived being back on the open spaces of Grant Reserve and never looked in danger against finals aspirant Hoppers Crossing. Despite missing a few of their stars from last week, the team once again displayed that they are a very good team.
The U18As had a point to prove to everyone and they certainly did it in spades. Their second quarter was one of the best quarters I have ever seen in under age football. They are now a real force to be reckoned with this year.
The U18Bs fought hard all day and restricted Wyndhamvale to a modest score. Missing several players from the winning side of last week the boys could not match a stronger side.
The Senior Women kept their finals hopes alive with a resounding win against Jacana. In cold, wet and windy conditions the team played some very good football.
