The Tor. Eagles live for a clash against Etobicoke and are no easy win under any situation. The "Roos have been building slowly over the 1st 12 rounds of the season and have yet to full hit their peak form. With finals only 2 weeks away was today going to be where they unleashed on the Tor. Eagles.
The short answer is no, with only 5 goals to 1/2 time and holding a 23 point lead anything could happen against the Eagles who would love to claim a scalp before their season closes. The Eagles will miss the finals for only the 2nd time in the clubs 24 year history. The best of any club in AFL Ontario history.
The "Roos to their credit did bang on 10 goals to 4 in the 2nd half but still remained in only 2nd gear for the game. With 6 players to come back into the team for finals will that be the time that the bounce comes back into their game to help aid them in their quest for their 1st back to back AFL Ontario Premiership titles.
The Roos were best served by Chris Haelser who kicked 5 goals and Emile Studham with 3 while Jason Robinson playing in the midfield and Marcus Sargent in defence played their best games for the year.
