Eels Newsletter - Round 9 , 2019

A tale of two very different matches this weekend, as the U9’s clocked up a win at Newcomb while the U11’s were out done at Bellbrae by the well drilled unit from South Barwon.

The U9’s were back at Newcomb to have a rematch against a team who just pipped us last time. This passionate bunch of Eels had unfinished business this time around and wasted no time getting early scores on the board. Their kicking to targets and marking continues to improve each week and with new comber Zak Pesenti playing his first Eels game, the U9’s celebrated a victory.

The U11’s early good form seems to have projected them into a competitive, strong division for the remainder of the season. So when greeted with South Barwon Knuckey already warming up, the Eels knew they would have their work cut out for them. The game was tough but it was encouraging to see some improved form from many of our younger Eels which will hold the team in good stead as the season continues. And as is the Eels way, their efforts didn’t wavered for 4 quarters.

A big thanks to Tim from Skinny Legs for his support of the Eels with the kind donation of the

Skinny Legs award for the next few weeks
