Bad start cost us. We couldn't get the result we were after. Tremendous spirit and fight back which epitimised our season. It was a pleasure to be involved with this team. To the boys, thanks for your committment, passion and drive, it made coaching a pleasurable experience. I wish you all the very best for your future football endeavours.
Special thanks to Rick, David L, David T, Nick G, Rob G, Tess and Evelyn and all other parents who helped out during the season.
