Week 1

At Nowra (Reserve Grade)
At Kiama (First Grade)

Whilst the results did not go our way on the weekend I think there were definitely more positives than negatives to come out of both performances. A couple of highlights I want to mention were the performance of the more inexperienced players on Friday night (Rhubarb, Phil, Jarrod and Quinny especially), the backline on Saturday (Greeny, Luke Rogers, Newy, Jace, Bails, Lunny, Callum, Cheese, Jake, Browny) and the number of people to both games (players and supporters alike).

A special thanks to all the people that helped out with the Aussie on Friday night and those that ran water, goals, boundary, the sideline and other elements that all come together during the games to help out. It is those extra efforts that we need to make this club grow stronger and look more professional.

I will not be at training tomorrow and neither will Ty. Hutch and BK will take the session and as discussed at the games there is no training this Thursday (23rd) as there is no game this weekend.

Next week training is Tue/Thu at normal times and the games are at home on Sat againt Uni (Res) and Wollondilly (First). Please let me know if you are not available for either game. The teams will be named at training on Thu and barring any injuries or unforseen circumstances will be as read for the games on the weekend.

Thanks again for the efforts over the weekend and let's put together an improved performance on May 2nd for our first home game, and come away with wins in both grades.
