Round 5 v DOSA at Uni 08/05/2021
A 7 to 3 goal flurry in the last quarter wasn't enough for the Seniors to snatch victory after the Lady Bows and Reserves had secured victories earlier in the day.

MATCH REPORT:
This week we wanted to build
on the team footy played against Richmond. The first quarter was a cracker with
DOSA kicking 6 goals and Uni 4. DOSA upped the ante in the next quarter but
poor kicking in front of goal meant they led
by 26 points at half time. The premiership quarter saw DOSA move further ahead
but we can take heart in us outscoring DOSA in the last quarter to lose by 16
points. Trolley was inspirational with his attack on the ball in the middle and
Vanders again showed great leadership in the ruck. Sam Chivers marked everything
up forward finishing with 7 goals and after halftime Marto showed his skills.
We look forward to a big game against St Virgils as it
is always exciting to test yourself against the competion leader.

MATCH REPORT:
We knew DOSA would improve from the first
time we played them and this proved to be true when they led by a point at
quarter time. With our forward structure working better we matched DOSA again in
the second quarter. After half time our defence continued to hold strong and
with Woody starring in the air and kicking goals we ended up winners by 26
points.
Jimmy Cummins and Will Edmunds led the backline superbly
and in the middle Grubby and Dicko were busy for the whole game. Connor Berry
also stood up in the ruck and rarely lost a tap.
R1 Lady Bows :
Round two for the Girl Bows was always going to be a tough ask, playing against
the bench mark of the competition Lindisfarne. With 9 changes from our Round 1
side and three more debutantes this week in Lauren Maddock, Leah Bartlett and
Olivia Carr we were out to see what we were made of.
Our back line played their roles beautifully holding the Lindisfarne forwards to
account across all four quarters, this was lead beautifully by Annie Lord and
Hayley Doohan.Our mids were relentlessly pushing the ball forward and were
accountable right around the ground. We had two of our debutantes play their
first quarter in the ruck today. Both Leah and Lauren showed their versatility,
lead wonderfully by Sam and Sarah.
We proved today that we can be dangerous in front of goal and have more than one
contributor to our scoreboard. Eli had an absolute blinder, using her pace and
athleticism to kick 4 majors for the day. The ever reliable Remie managed to
also get her name in the paper with a goal of her own.
