Round 8
Scotch vs Uni White
Saturday June 14th 2008

A Grade
Scotch 1 - 0 Uni White

It was good to get back on the winners list in the league after dropping vital points in the last two matches. The game was set up early with impressive full pitch pressure being employed, especially by Matty, Rooney and Welly up front, that created the opening goal. Great effort boys. Welly cooly slotted the ball past the keeper to add another to his growing tally. Nice work mate! Everyone continued to follow the brilliant work effort and we had the ball flowing very quickly and effectively, and were unlucky not to get another couple, especially with Mattys that somehow flashed past the post and Welly pulling an awesome save out of the keeper low to his right to keep the White's in the game. Our midfield and defensive dominance meant we did not looked very troubled all day, with Gazza not having to complete a single save. It was good to see Gabe get through his normal array of testing tackles!! :o) and I think this week Geordie can do some work on his set pieces!! Congrats to Risky for having his 1st A's game and doing impressively well.

Here's to a run starting in the league for us no boys, continuing with Mercedes next week.

B Grade
Scotch 0 - 1 Uni White

Well I'm a little baffled today how again we didn't get some points out of the game! Admittedly we had a slow first 20 minutes that lead to the goal, but other than that we had an even share of possession and definitely the better of the 2nd half chances that we unfortunately could not take advantage from, both due to poor finishing and some 'interesting' decisions made by the ref, that to be fair had both teams wondering if we were playing netball or soccer. All I can say is that we will keep working towards getting some wins, but other than that continue supporting each other and staying positive.
