On the back of a great Sponsorship and Past players weekend, the young Tackers put in a “Solid” performance! Daniel Curnow and Joey Pryor lead the team as Captain’s for the day to win their 2nd game in a row and they are looking for a hat trick next week. The ground was nice and muddy after all the rain but that just added to the fun of it all. Once again we managed to keep a team scoreless in the 2nd half of a game. We welcomed Joey Pryor to his first game of Tackers and he fitted in really well, almost scoring a goal. There was some great plays by many players but the person taking out “Player of the Round” was Declan Sheftz. The score for the day was Ashwood 3.9.25 to Beaumaris 1.5.11. Well Done boys keep up the great work.

 

Reserves: With plenty of passion and belief amongst the whole team, the reserves hit the ground running! The boys were working hard for each other and enjoying each challenge Mount Waverley threw at them. A hard fought well deserved victory was testament to the work the players are putting in each week. As we welcome our new major sponsor aboard, the reserves fit perfectly under there banner and looked SOLID in all departments once again! All 22 players had an impact; Pickle Spencer dominated all day, with Drew "Harry" Connick as his sidekick. Another step in the right direction boys, keep the foot on the pedal as season 2012 continues to take shape for the reserves.

 

Seniors: Inspiring words from a club legend before the game, had us pumped and ready to go in the seniors, and it showed with a dominant first quarter display. Feeling good with our disposal and running game going we still had the lead at halftime. Unfortunately thats where it unravelled. Another second half fade out, let our supporters and most importantly ourselves down. Its time to take a good hard look at whats happened so far this year. All words have been said, plans have been put into place, but its time to stand up now and show the passion for the jumper, show the pain we are feeling, and most of all turn our disappointment into inspiration and get the results we need to get our season going. The hurt is obvious boys, lets group together and chip away week by week and turn bad form around.
