Squawk's Club Notes
Round 3 vs St Kilda City
On The Ground – We were simply outclassed by a different level of opponent last week. At times it was pretty awesome to watch, as the Saints ball use was supreme in the conditions. We have to pick ourselves up off the mat though as today’s game is a MUST WIN. If we leave Hurlingham Park without the four points, finals are nearly out of reach. Come on lads, its time we took a stand!
The reserves fielded a star-studded line up yet aside from patches in the first half, didn’t perform like it. We will take the four points and move on. Well done to Dogga, Bolg, Bert on good games.
The Colts took it right up to City early and if not for some wayward shots on goal, should have been well clear. But good sides take their chances and they made us pay. Good effort all the same but we now know we can complete at the top level!
The Chieftains bounced back with a gutsy come from behind win at Clayton. Keep it up fellas!
Thanks to the St Kilda City committee, coaches, supporters and player (not plural) for coming in after the game, we will make sure we do the same at the Farm later in the year.
Round 2 vs St Pauls East Bentleigh
Off The Ground – The ANZAC Lunch was again a massive success. Thanks to all who participated and especially to all those who gave up their time to help out, either inside, or on the hill.
On The Ground – Another week, another disappointing result for the seniors. We have dug ourselves a hole at 0-2 and with the reigning premiers coming for a visit this weekend. We need to stick fat and things will eventually click. We have shown in patches that our best is very very good, it’s just a case of putting it all together for four quarters. Congrats to Otty, Frank and Macca on good games.
The ressies did themselves no favours early with some poor execution up forward and a lack of smart ball use. WE got better as the day went on but eventually the poor start cost us the game. Well done to Jamo, Nath, Bulldog, Sefa and JJ on good efforts.
The Colts had a win in their first game of the year. Good team effort on the whole but we know we can play a lot better.
Thirds were undermanned and it showed on the scoreboard against a good Mt Waverley side. Well done to all those who got themselves out of bed and helped out.
Round 1 vs Mordialloc 2010
On The Ground – Last weekend started with the Colts receiving a phone call on the morning of the game to say that Narre had pulled the pin. Disappointing start to say the least but good luck to the boys today in the ‘first’ game.
Also not the start we were looking for in the seniors with Mordialloc recording a good win. We can learn a lot from it though and it may take time for us to gel. Good to see Frankie back and firing as well as Wick and Jazz.
Well done to the reserves and clubbies on good first up efforts. Joe Daly in the ressies and JJ in the Colts brought their own footy it seemed! Plenty of players pushing for higher honors which can only help strengthen the club.
