The travel to Southport for any team is a daunting task as they are rarely beaten at home.
With the break last weekend, Steve Pickering had the boys focused and ready for a massive challenge
The entire 4 quarters were played a hectic pace with the biggest lead of the day being two goals.
Blake Hynes in his first game back from injury was leading the way with his attack at the ball from full forward.
He not only gave us a great target but enable other players to get involved.
Southports tall timber were proving a handfull for our backmen, but it was our smaller players that dominated the
game.
Jerry Buchannan had a terrific game and was easyily best man on the ground. He had great support in Jacob Green,
Adam Fry, Rory Hutchinson and our inspirational captain Jack Dean.
The last term was a nail biter and when Blake Hynes goaled from a pin point pass from Thomas Henderson with just
2 minutes left, we thought we had it in the bag.
But Southport kept coming and goaled from a free kick with less than a minute on the clock and trailing by 6 points.
In the dying seconds, Southport had another 2 shots at goal but failed to convert under terrific pressure from our boys.
When the siren finally sounded it put an end to a heart stopping win, and i think it just may be the win that takes us
to greater things for the rest of the season.
Well Done guys and thankyou to Steve Martin for organising the BBQ for breakfast and to all to parents who travelled down to support us.
