Week 2

Vs Uni of Wollongong (Reserve Grade)
Vs Wollondilly (First Grade)

Fantastic performance from First Grade on the weekend with the largest win in a few years beating Wollondilly 21.9 135 to 2.7 19. A great team effort making it difficult to pick best players but special mention must go to the half back line of Newy, Greeny and Browny who I thought were superb on Sat and backed up well by Cranky, Lunny, Clint and Finn. Great work on the ball from Blue, Hutch, Vickers, Hoff, Jace and everyone else who had some time there and great and efficient work in front of the sticks from Dale, Chris and Emu especially highlighted our really pleasing performance. Good to see Hoff, Cranky, Clint and Finn back this week and we welcome Simon back this week (he'll have some work to do to force his way into the side).


Ressies had a tough day at the office with Uni proving to be too quick and big for us but the promising sign is that we had close to a full line up with only 3 guys having to back up for 1st Grade. Great efforts everywhere with Phil, Bails, Halfy, Jake, Goof and Pommy standing out. Good to see Big Wal, Doogs and Pommy back and I think this is going to be a strong year in Ressies as we find some very good players competing for first grade spots in the team throughout the year.



This week Ressies have a bye and First Grade is away to Port Kembla. They are tough at home and we will need to play in a similar style to last Sat to come away with the points. TO BE CONSIDERED FOR SELECTION THIS WEEK YOU MUST HAVE PAID REGO, it is only $50, no more excuses. Next week I will name and shame those that haven't paid or spoken to the Club about it.

Let's continue the great numbers at training (24 again last night) but remember that those that train are more likely to get selected as the team is named on Thu night after training. Don't forget the Friday night raffles at the Aussie as well.

Attached is a map to Port Kembla's ground. Any questions, queries or doubtful points give us a bell or drop us a line.
