Game 13 21/7/09
Eight players and an oppositions Coach who offered to play eight a side was the best start we have had for a while. This was short lived with an impressive attack from the Sharks which we could not match.
The high note out of this game was the way the boys pulled together in defence and passed the ball between themselves.
Even though they lost they played together as a team today instead of individuals and we were all very proud of them
Bailey de Villers received the trophy today for great defence in the first half and keeping in the second half.
Andrew Rickard
U8/Green lose 0-10 vs Gleadesville Ravens
Game 12 14/7/07
With only seven players for the majority of the game the score line says it all. Most of the game was obviously spent in defence but they still managed to make a few breaks into the oppositions half which got the crowd cheering.
The encouraging thing about this team is when you ask them at the end of the game if they all had fun; they all give a big YES and continue to demolish a huge tub of oranges.
Christopher Rickard received the trophy today for tackling back and chasing the opposition down.

U8/Green lose 0-2 vs Redfield Lions
Game 11 30/6/07
It was another close game where everyone put in a good effort in defense but we still lacked some strength in the forward line. Two quick goals in the second half zapped some of the enthusiasm but they still had fun.
Edwin Hosseini received the trophy today for great running and trying hard.
Andrew Rickard
U8/Green lose 0-1 vs Holy Cross College
Game 10 23/6/07
The boys had three early misses which would have changed the game as they were beaten by a goal against the run of play. In saying that, they are really enjoying themselves and improving each week.
