Not unlike the infamous Alphonse Gangitano of UnderBelly fame, after a slow start in the business the senior side got a couple of early killings, perhaps got a little ahead of themselves and had aspirations of becoming a heavyweight but were eventually gunned down by those that they threatened most – namely Glengarry, TTU and Rosedale in a three week period. Despite the losses, Luke Cooper and Jordan Bourke have been in scintillating form with Luke surely due to finally poll some league votes this year after being one of the best players going around for nearly a decade. The young players at the club continue to step up and fill roles in the senior side with this week Lochie Johnston playing a great game and also bagging a couple of goals. Sean Alexander, Brad McBride, Sam Scammell and Corbin Busse have also tasted senior footy this season while still performing very well in the thirds week after week. Well done blokes.
The two’s came close but no one was smoking cigars come game’s end. With Baby Rado, Bobby Dazzler and Mossy back in the team as well as Skid Marks who was in town for the weekend, the side looked a lot stronger. The boys put together three good quarters but had a costly lapse in the second term that eventually resulted in a loss. If the team can ever get a full side on the park the same week, surely the big win will come that they have been working so hard for.
The thirds had a horrible loss with their season back in the balance. The lads have a two week layoff now and will need to train the house down ready for the run home.
Well excuse me! The B Grade girls cracked it for a win (two weeks ago) and it was terribly overlooked in these pages last week. The lovely ladies that wear the Big B are on the board and despite their ladder position are now looking to September! With awesome shooters, a solid defence and a midfield that could rival that of the Vixens, the girls look set for bigger and better things. Well done ladies!
