SENIORS
We met North Ballarat on a cold day at Eureka Stadium.
Once again we got off to a slow start and the Roosters quickly had 4 goals on before we scored.
Overall it was a disappointing game, but had we kicked straighter the result may have been different or at least a little closer.
In the 2nd half we kicked 2.9 to 8.5, so we only had 2 less scoring shots.
Positives for the day was Ben Clifton who tagged dangerous player Myles Sewell for the first half then went onto Ryan McKenzie for the 2nd half and kept him quiet.
Tom Hislop was also another good player and his quick hands at getting the ball out at contests gave us some run.
Jeromey Webberley once again was serviceable running off half back and wing.
First gamer Glenn Grgic playing as the 23rd player, used his pace and got the ball into the 50m arc,but we did not capitalize on it.
Goals:Carnell 3, Clifton, Hislop, Grgic
DEVELOPMENT
It was good for the Development team to register another win.
The young boys are improving weekly and putting pressure on the senior team for promotion.
Tom Lucin came back into form playing on ball.Dylan Murphy was elusive around goals,and was ably support by his bother Kayne.
The margin should have been greater but due to inaccuracy around goals, and pressure from Nth Ballarat meant the margin was always around 3-4 goals throughout the game.
Tom Stephens at CHB shows he is coming along nicely and coming from a basketball background,he has quickly adapted to our game style.
Ben Griffiths safely got through the game and his 65 metre torpedo goal was a highlight.
Once again James Saville was superb at Full back and had 28 possessions and 17 rebound 50’s.
Goals: D.Murphy 3,Lynch 2,Macdonald 2,Griffiths 2,Lucin 2,Groves,Madden,Linton
This week we meet Frankston at Highgate Recreation reserve at Craigieburn on Sunday 22nd May.
Development game:11am, Senior Game:2pm.
Come along and support the boys to hopefully our first win of 2011.
