The U9Blue team defeated Para Hills 11.5 - 71 to 3.3 - 21 at home today.  It was a much more free flowing game and allowed our boys to kick to positions on the gound where we had the numbers.  The really pleasing part was the number of shepherds given that gave teamates that extra time to steady their kick.  There was also a couple of courageous plays where a boy backed into a pack, or put themselves in a position to be "crunched" yet they still did it and both times really helped the team.   Encouragement awards this week to Will Proudman, Mitch Warren, Sebastian Maslen, Damjan Jurkovic, Ethan Powell and Jack Mills.
