Langhorne Creek always provide a good physical contest, so we knew we were in for a hard game.
We started well, using our run and carry well. Whilst we didn't do this all game, the one thing I was really proud of was the boys willingness to compete hard in the packs. We certainly are a hard-at-it side, which I believe which is good to see.
Best players were Gav Mason in the ruck, who just worked tirelessly all day competing hard in the air. At ground level, Thomo was outstanding in the pivot setting up many plays. Scoota led the way with his attack on the footy and winning the ball in the packs. Devo was a great focal point up forward and his strong marking was a feature of his game kicking 6.4. Gents played a solid game of half back and has shown great improvement in his contested marking. Chris Kohnke played the evergreen Tim Follett and did a great job, his closing speed certainly was a feature of his game.
Really proud of the boys on Saturday. Hope everyone enjoys the week off and comes back refreshed & rested and ready to attack the second half of the season, full on!
Well done to Moll and the 17s for their great win and first win of the season against Creeks.
Cheers
Daisy
