Walkerville 18 15 def Golden Grove 2 1

A solid enough scoreboard result, but our lack of tackling pressure and high number of ball gathering and handball errors were concerning. We will suffer at the hands of teams like Payneham and TTG if we serve up today’s form in finals.

Walkerville 13 16 def Salisbury 2 1

We never really got the whole thing happening today, but the best moments showed excellent run and carry, good link up play and good support through shepherding. We lacked cleanness with our ball gathering, though and dropped some marks we should have taken, especially early in the game – those shortfalls will hurt us against the better teams in the comp.

After a tardy start when we simply had too few really prepared to commit their body at the contest, the team showed some of the best commitment and discipline we have seen this season.

TTG 12 6 def Walkerville 6 6

Well, we found out today just how difficult it will be to win the flag. The TTG team is very good with plenty of players prepared to back themselves at each and every contest. To compete with them next time, we will need to at least match their intensity throughout the entire 4 quarters.
