Jets U14A 4.10 (34) def.by Vermont 13.18 (96)
Big test for the boys on Sunday playing against ladder leaders & last years premiers in Vermont! After being thrashed in round 5 by about 20 goals to say this loss was an indication of our improvement & development was a massive understatement. Against a much bigger & more powerful team our boys gave absolutely everything & apart from ten minutes in each half we matched Vermont in intensity. We certainly could have used the footy better in the third quarter, not capitalising with the wind & allowing a few easy goals to the opposition really put us under some pressure leading into the final quarter. We fought the game out exceptionally well & held our own in the last when kicking against the wind which was a positive as we build up to finals in a few weeks.
Many players contributed significantly at different times of the game, Aza & Koda really worked hard in the ruck & through the midfield in the absence of Tom & Cal & Jax were fantastic all day repelling many forward thrusts from Vermont.
Big game this week against Mooroolbark who we are most likely to meet again in a fortnight.
