Another great Tackers Day with plenty of fun had by all. Game 1 against St Damians, all boys played well with the highlight of a great mark taken by Liam Fowler, passed to Millsy and goal. Game 2 - great 2nd efforts by Tom Philp, big punches by Will in the ruck, great tackling and run out of the centre by Liam Moran and Kris Fisher. Game 3 - Tough game by Andrew Giddens, got bumped high, came off, went back on and took a great mark in a pack. Game 4 - great run out of the centre by Joel Matthews. Great mark in a pack by Thomas Philp resulting in a great goal. That gave us a big run on and room for Riley to move the ball cleanly out of the centre where he got a big bump, got up, went straight for the tackle - 2nd effort.
Good fun had by all kids and parents. Thanks to all parents for your continuing help and support.
