Another week goes by and the C2 Competition delivers another cracking weekend with the weather evening things up! Mossie Park get over the Royals by 6-goals - an expected result one would think. After last times 170-odd point win, the Saints push league leaders Quinns to within 4-goals. Canning give our young Cougars a footy lesson... again! and in the GOTR, Basso beat Warnbro in a thriller leaving the Warnbro vs Canningvale match this weekend essentially an Elimination Final.
Can anyone give us the result of the Vally Manning game? I would expect Valley to have won quite easily, but with the Royals up the Valley's bum the result does have bearing on the relegation battle.
Colts
Swan View 7.8.50 def by Canningvale 6.17.53
Obviously, didn't get to watch this game as it was out at Swan View and the rest of us were at the Wyong Mud-Pit, but being the top of the table clash, I was not surprised in the least that the game was decided by less than a kick. Here-say tells me that the Cougars kicked 12-behinds before kicking it straight which could have cost them the game but thankfully didn't.
Here-say also tells me that the adventures of Kermit the Swan View Coach/Runner continued on the weekend as well. Now some of you may remember last time that the bloke who was Running/Coaching for Swan View at the Den was Red Carded - I had never seen someone in that position carded before.... Now I hear post-match that as our Coach went to shake hands after the game he said something along the lines of well done, see you in the finals to which Kermit proceeded to say 'Nah, you blokes won't make it - you're shit'.... Interesting comment to say the least.
Well Kermit, we very much look forward to meeting you in the finals - especially as the way our League side is going, we will have a full squad of Colts to choose from...
Reserves
Canning 9.21.75 def Canningvale 1.7.13
Believe it or not, the Cougar Super Two's had a 1.3 - 0.1 lead at quarter time!! Unfortunately, they didn't score a goal for the rest of the game! Nothing of note within the game itself - well done to our guys who really showed some passion in such dreary conditions! I think regardless of the result they really enjoyed themselves yesterday! That's what footy is about!
League
Dealt a footy lesson by our cross-town rivals. Too big, too slick and too experienced. Canning are a good side....! We had 8-Colts double up and 1-Reserves player fill the void in our team that was caused by the festival of Splendour! Game played in good spirits - some colourful fans for the Tigers braved the rain and made some noise, providing constructive criticism to both our guys and even the team mates of their sons...!!! Side notes - we lost our skipper (and best player) in the first quarter with an eye injury - haven't heard what the go it, but I know he was sent to Royal Perth and I do believe one of the young indigenous boys for Canning got dragged after giving away a 50m penalty, I was told he spat it and took his things and left?? Maybe KTB can elabourate. All in all we were beaten on the day by a better side.
Pretty informed write up on the colts game there LAG all based on "here say"
May I correct you on a few things as i was at both games.Firstly,the card shown at the corresponding game was withdrawn after realising it was unwarranted. It was after your umpire was sucked in by your constantly whinging parents/supporters,most of whom could be heard continually doing the same thing yesterday from all parts of the ground.
Secondly,the runner shook your coaches hand without words and it was in fact the coach of the our colts who uttered some of those words. He informed us of his actions and we beleive it to be out of frustration from the way his team approached the game but hardly worth you needing to jump on here and act all high and mighty.
As your boys would be well aware from 2 Saturdays ago,if you don't bring your A game then you can be beaten by an inferior side. From where I was watching our boys should've probably lost the game by 3,4,5 goals. It wasn't the loss that "you have to have" but it certainly hurt and made the lads aware that they need to lift their game. I'm sure they'll meet again and with your league team appearing to take second fiddle behind the colts I've no doubt you'll be stronger as will we.
