Round 1 is always a difficult game to feel confident about. We were playing Kew who beat us easily in last years grand final and have won 3 Gold premierships in a row. I thought our preseason has been ok but we aren't as advanced as this time last season. Kew had their ruckman out who is a very good player but they still had 9 YJFL under 13's representative players in the team.
We started well with lots of pressure around the ground and went into quarter time with a good lead. The second and third quarters were slightly in our favour but Kew worked hard and kept themselves in the game. The last quarter we ran over them and probably could have won by more but all in all it was a very consistent performance. We know what we have to do to become a better side and today our ball use and running was reasonably good. We played Kew 5 times last year and for the first time had more run and carry statistics than them. Well done boys.
Goal kickers: Morro 6, Kye A 2, Macka 2, Ro 2 and Azza 1.
Everyone had good moments today and played their role. I will mention G Train, Van, Yodg and Morro for being consistent over 4 quarters.
