Round 11

On Sunday we travelled to Macleod to take on the top team who had only lost twice so far this year & after our effort last week who knew what was going to happen. I know we have all heard that old saying that the scoreboard didn't truly reflect the game, well this was one of those times. I was extremely proud of the way we played on Sunday our attack at the ball was awesome & at half time the top team would have been worried. Unfortunately we couldn't keep the pressure up in the second half & Macleod showed us why they are on top. We continue to show in glimpses what we are capable of but we must keep working for the entire game. Macleod had more size all over the ground which has a common theme this year but our boys acquitted themselves very well. Liam took some big marks all over the ground & topped his day off with a nice left foot goal ( which is by the way his opposite foot ) Ados as always was dangerous around goals, Jordan, Charlie & Patty were their usual busy selves & as in every previous week so far we had some boys improve. K played forward & was responsible for one of our goals, Jake went into the ruck in the last qtr to give Morgan who battled hard against a very big Ruckman a spell & competed well & is now over his injury which means he can spend more time further up the ground. Grayson was awarded our encouragement award for his hard work & tight checking in the backline & continues to improve each week & Benny was our General down back as he has been all year & Will also played well down back.
