Round 18 -08 August  Reserves v Richmond - last half  09.20 (074) d Richmond 11.06 (072) 

The weather was on the improve and the Reserves won a close one while the Seniors lost to Richmond for the first time this season. Congratulations to Mick Gowans on his 50th game and during the week Coach Ben Beams agreed to coach Uni for the next two seasons which is fantastic news. All going well with his knee, we might even see him pull the boots on in 2010.

   


 
Good grab to Troy who kicked a goal to put Uni in front but Richmond replied and regained the lead.

 
Lovely lond distance goal to C Martin gave Uni a 2 point victory
