Round 6 Roleystone 10's V's Cockburn 20/06/09 PDF Print E-mail

Waking up to dark skys and heavy rain we thought it would be a true winter day for our game against Cockburn at Davilak Park. We arrived at the oval to clearing skys which made the parents a bit happier not having to stand in pouring rain. The game started intense as both teams were running hard working the ball to their advantage.

The second quarter was much the same as the team that was prepared to play in front would move the ball quicker to their forward line,which we were able to do on more occasions through fantastic team work by the Tigers.

At half time the coach asked the players to keep up their team work but said that we needed to play more in front to reward ourselves abit more and win the ball first.

The third quarter started off exactly that way with the Tigers getting to the ball first and being rewarded more by getting it forward quickly to outscore the opposition.

They continued this in the final quarter with the ball in our forward line for 95% of the quarter showing some unselfish work by sharing it around ending the term with multiple goal scorers. Another outstanding game by the Roley 10's.
