St Marys Under 12 Gold - 3.11.29 vs. Banyule 3.0 .18
Coaches' comments:
 Another very slow start saw us behind at half time for the third week in a row. An obvious lift in intensity in the second half and a couple of goals by Conner in the third set up a lead, which a tough performance in the last quarter was able to be maintained. Great sealing goal late in the last from Jesse.
