SENIORS – Sponsored by Merkon Constructions
Sometimes you have to win ugly and that’s what we managed to do against a determined City at the Farm. As they say, 4 points is 4 points no matter what the margin. The superbly named MARK Marasco did just that and pulled in 15 ‘marks’ at CHB in another brilliant BOG display that helped us get over the line. When the 19’s gave Roy the ‘Bird’ they knew not expect him back too soon as he was very creative again. Houston continued his fine form and Gilbo again showed how important he is. This week Cheltenham at home provides another great challenge.

The Two’s were chock a block loaded with talent and it showed as the ’Bendigo boys’ strutted their stuff. It was like a day at the Avalon Air show with Jack Hayes dominating the skies whilst up forward the B52 BomBer slammed home 8 straight in a devastating performance. Young guns Harry Pratt, Paul Tolongs and Mitch Hurley showed plenty in the 141 point victory.
Under 19’s - St Pauls V Skye - Sponsored by the Pearo’s Plumbing
The 19’s battled manfully but were simply over-run in the hot conditions by weight of numbers and a classy opponent. Two boys sent to Hospital didn’t help but the 9 player difference gives the 56 point losing margin less significance. All in all a good effort led again by Beau Phillips who is as ferocious at the contest as any player in the league. He was given great support from Michael who is backing up week after week along with Carlos and Tim who ran hard all day.
Netballers - St Paul's V Heatherton – Sponsored by Eva Rose Hair Salon (31-20)
Our defence led by Domonique O'Sullivan (GK) and Julia Woiwod (GD)put pressure on last year’s premiers causing many turnovers. Meghann Geschke (C), Sam Hunt (WA/WD), Caitlin Lewis (WD/WA) and Eliza Barnes (WA/GA) covered all bases through the mid-court and made it particularly hard for them to find any momentum. Constant pressure and close checking around the court paid off with an 11 point victory.
