Round 14

A bit of a mixed bag today. We had the better of the game in the first quarter but once again we were unable to take our chances and get rewarded on the score board. The second quarter Fitzroy got on top in the centre clearances which allowed them to get quick forward entries and score easily and swiftly. After a few changes to the line-up in the third quarter we once again had by far the better of the game. It was really pleasing to see we didn’t drop our heads at half time and really put them under pressure in the third quarter. But the story of our season has been not being able to convert dominant possession and forward entries into scores and so like the first quarter we got little reward for all our effort and dominance. The last quarter we started to tire a little not surprisingly considering we had no bench because of injuries and conceded some late goals. Although beaten, I was pleased with our effort, endeavour and for two quarters our play. It’s the last week our top age boys have with the club so let make it a good week on the track and go out with a bang against Parkside .
