This week’s Round 15 match Noosa V Redlands turned out to be a grinding hard fought win for our young Tigers.
The Redlands team certainly came to Noosa to play on Sunday as they arrived two hours before the start of play. With Redlands season on the line they were never going to be easy beats.
The first quarter produced some inaccurate kicking by both sides and the turnovers from Noosa in the first half helped Redlands maintain a 4 point lead at half time. At half time Shunter called upon all players to lift and to improve on their disposal. At the third break our boys were in front and maintained a lead until the final siren.
A great team effort was witnessed by a big crowd with several of our seniors returning from their great win at Burleigh to support our boys. In the absence of Logan McKenzie who injured his shoulder during the week and Lachine Cameron who has a back injury all 22 players made a huge contribution to the win.
Special mention to the following players for their efforts. Shaun Maxfeild, Dan Pertot, Jack Tickner,Ryley Buntain, Stewy Allen, Jed Sheridan,Jack Hendrie,and Jake Hawkesworth. Also a special thanks to Jack Hunt for helping out the 18s this week.
Next week’s round 6 catch up game being the final round of the season against the Western Magpies promises to be the blockbuster of the year. The game commences at 2.00pm on Sunday we look forward to a big crowd to support the 18s in their quest for the finals. We look forward to the return of key position player Will Troedel. Congratulations to the seniors, Reserves and the thirds for their wins on the weekend.
Cheers from Kymbo
