This week had us travel to Niagara Park for a 10:00 am start.
Down Two players before the start I thought we might struggle a bit.
How wrong was I. With two new players joining the team during the week, This made a big difference to the teams ability to take control of ball. Cam continued on from last week gaining many possessions and sending the ball forward to Beau who was playing his first game for us. Many goals were scored .
Half time and the Umpires requested that our players stay in their zones so we swapped a few positions about to get all the kids into the game. This had the ball going from end to end which got all the kids involved from both teams.
Player of the match for us was Luke who made a big improvement from last week.
Excellent effort once again from Cam and Beau who played his first game for us.
A really good team building win against the Dockers.

The final score isn't always a reflection of the skill and determination of a team. Our U13's side should be proud. With it being the 1st game for four of our players and 2nd for the remaining crew, the team were confronted with some hard hits and aggressive play from a team who were well and truly into their fourth round of the year. Like our 1st game of the season, our 'newly formed' squad displayed some impressive personal strengths and for those who know footy, belief that they will form a strong team with a little team unity, positional play and game familiarity. This is a team who, although standing at the bottom of the Peak, have all the energy and determination to make it to the top. New recruit's Joey Liddle, Patrick Farrell and Callum Dunkerley started their AFL season strong whilst old hands, after one game, Jack Harris and Mason Craig played strong and never gave up. Blake Lester was relentless in the back line and saved as many goals as went through - well done team.

Well what a difference a week makes, Bateau Bay serve it up to us. It was a hard match in the first half of the game, we didn’t play so well but in the second half we started to match Bateau Bays effort and started to win the football and got on top of them a good win. Best on ground Sid, Mason and Sam.
