Round 6 Review

Last week at University Main Oval it was a case of too little too late for the Blues. A plucky Marcellin side were able to draw away early and by the time the Seniors had clicked in to gear the match was beyond them. On the bright side Dr Gunga's charges handed out a shellacking to the Marcellin Twos, leading at every change and again powering away in the final quarter.

The Crawford came alive last Saturday for the Blues/Blacks under-19 derby. The Young Guns came through in the end just getting over the Blacks by four points in a heart-stopper! Earlier on the Crawf, the Clubbies came up against a ferocious Xavs side who took the points in a low scoring encounter.

Round 7 Preview

This week the Blues head out Ammo HQ to take on Old Essendon.

The Essendon Boys have had a tough start to the year but things seem to be on the improve. It is a huge game for the Blues who will no doubt be throwing everything into snagging the four points and a ticket up the ladder.

Gunga's Twos have been on a roll the past few weeks and if their present form continues they should be too good for Old Essendon who have had an underwhelming start to the year.

The challenge is on this week for the Unders who take on the undefeated Xavier in Hawthorn East*. For the Clubbies it's off to the Snake Pit to fight it out with the Yellow Peril, St Bernards.

*Please note the venue for this weeks Unders game has changed. The match will now be played at Rathmines Road Reserve, Rathmines Road, Hawthorn East (Melways Map 45 H10) at 11:40 am.

Go Blues!
