Conditions - It's a slightly cloudy day today with the ground a bit wet.

With the first kick going to Mundijong, Roleystone needs to stick to their players.

Going into the second quarter, Centrals opened with two goals, with Roleystone putting up a good fight they set themselves up for a goal... with the kick slightly off, they got the point.

Coming out of half time Roleystone's defence was strong. They had some excellent marks and some great kicks.

Last quarter sees Roleystone playing hard. Keeping the ball in the forward line and looking like their first goal, a touch saw them score another point.

As the siren sounds, its a loss for Roleystone.

Hello Everyone;

Today's game was a real learning curve for the Y6 team. 

1st Quarter:

Jandakot came out on fire kicking many unanswered goals in the first quarter largely due to excellent mid field clearances from 3 key players. These players had good leads from key forwards who were ready to accept chest marks and convert goals quickly. Roleystone showed some signs of contest however not enough to stop an entourage of goals that kept coming from Jandakot, one even from the centre players.

2nd Quarter:

Roleystone offered a far greater contest. Zak B in the centre showed great fight and tenasity for the ball and Billy Marlowe lead by example by placing great back-line pressure on the Jandakot forwards. Billy's clearances were second to none with good back up from other players also. Wilfredo fought extremely well for the ball and Sam took some great marks around centre half back to clear the ball with thumping kicks to Max, Matthew and Zak P. Tom worked very hard with other forwards whenever the ball came to that end.

3rd Quarter:

All players are now talking far more and although still way behind in the goals, the team is showing higher levels of leading and possession however minimal conversions are being made. Zak W's leading and marking out of the back line is impressive as are Conners and Fions tackling skills. Jandakot appear to be tiring a little and are converting less. Some player changes by Coach Sean Ashby are helping with greater more fluent use of the ball. Great goal by Winston for Roleystone really pumps the team up.

4th Quarter:

Roleystone played this quarter well and it would have been great to have this level of skills displayed from the first quarter. Higher levels of tackles, smooth long kicks enables some goal kicking by Clayton up forward. Defending was also great in this quarter once again. Our Y6 team lifted greatly in this quarter and showed that their skills are very close to other teams in the competition. Although we went down considerably, we all talked about the learning's of the day and will no doubt put this into practice in future games.

Player Awards;
