NORTHS 1 drew EASTS 1
Although not a win, a great game.
We knew they would be strong and they put the pressure on us for the first twenty minutes. The turning point was a break away by yours truly coming off a through ball from Greg Coman allowing me to cross the ball to Steve Fanker for a deflection. Then it was all us for the next 15 minutes. We were unlucky to concede a goal with 2 mins to go in the half to tie the score. Great defense once again saved our arse.

Whilst both teams had opportunities, we were the aggressors and held the pill the majority of the time.
Wardy played extremely well in covering the whole field as did Frank and Steve Sawyer who were hot in attack and fast to get back in defence. Luke had a more aggressive game and that helped our chances and Damien proved invaluable at the back again saving a few.

The last two games are as good as the competition gets. Whilst our results have been pleasing, we have been lucky not to concede goals in the first twenty minutes. We don’t start with enough aggression or urgency and we will have to work on that. We will not win finals until we do.
