U12’s
Great team effort by all the girls on the court this week, winning 35-2. All girls were able to play different positions to what they are used to and did a great job adapting! Both Kiara and Belle stood out with their defensive skills and Ella and Jolie got the team off to a good start by shooting accurately. Awesome win today girls.

U14’s
These girls played a great game considering significant changes were made each quarter with a different 7 taking the court. Elahna and Chloe were given a challenge of different positions but did exactly what was asked of them, making them very deserving award winners. 40-21

U16’s
The girls had another tough game this week playing 4th on the ladder. They had a very strong and consistent first half but unfortunately down by 20. Two awards this week went to Charli Lovell and Chloe Twentyman who worked extremely well in the ring together. The girls know what we need to work on and we will continue to do that in the coming weeks ahead.

U18’s
U18’s played their best game of the season and came out winners over a strong Balranald side. The combination of Eva and liv in goals made the Balranald defence work over time. Amity and Bridgett combined well in attacking positions and delivered the ball into the goal ring well. Luca worked hard to put pressure on the ball outside the Balranald attacking my ring and the defensive due of Emily and Hovo applied great pressure in the ring and turned over possession at the most crucial time of the game. An amazing team effort. Best on court went to Eva. Coach’s awards went to liv and Bridgett.

Reserves
Round 8 and we travelled to Balranald, the first half of game beginning a bit slow till the boys found their feet after getting a rev up at half time. Buttsy having a great game popping up everywhere and covering a lot of the ground earnt him best on. A great game from young Xavier Johnson stepping up from colts for his first game in the reserves and standing his ground well. Kruges went well for 4 quarters in the ruck. Skidda kicking 5 goals followed by Jordy, Nooch and Hubba kicking 2 each, Buttsy and Adam Hendy 1 each.

Best players: Buttsy, Hubba, Josh Hendy, Kruges, Mertzy and Skidda

Seniors
The boys started a bit slowly at Balranald on Saturday however I feel it might have been the pressure that the Roos applied and we had to work our way through a rugged first half and went in at half time with an 8 point lead. The second half was a different game as the run from our boys really opened up the game. A 12 goals second half seen the boys come home with a comfortable 11 goals win. Doey cracked in hard all day, Angus had a huge job and stuck to it all day and Patty showed us some glimpses of what we can expect for the rest of the year.

Best players: Doey, Butters, Jye, Arny, Patty and Robbie.
