The reserves bowed out of the finals race after losing the elimination final to Dingley on Sunday. The bonus of a home final was wasted as we squandered our turn with the wind in the first term. The dingoes were up and about early and a three goal to nil opening term was disastrous.
To the lads credit they never gave up and a rousing third term put us back in the hunt. With Dingley finishing with wind we kept chipping away only to fall short by a goal.
David Ford was outstanding in the backline along with Luke Woolrich. Dean Kovacic also showed his class. Young guns Brad Bruni and Jay Piggin could also hold their heads high in their first finals appearance.
Credit must go to coach Paddy Hill. The reserves job is a tough one and Paddy’s demeanour and conduct has been terrific for our club.
