Results from Round 3

The night was looking ominous - with a huge number of players out due to injury and travel, two Women's Open players had to drop back into the Mixed Open & Junior teams, just to ensure there were enough players to take the field!

A hard fought game in the Mixed Open, with us down 5-2 at half time, resulted in a 9-6 loss. The second half was much better, as evidenced by the fact that we outscored them 4-3. Things look good for the future, with a relatively inexperienced group of players in this team. Tony & Matt scored two each, and Paul & Simon both chipped in with singles.

In actuality, there is possibly more experience in the Mixed Junior team, who had a great win, 5-3. Nicole the wonder-coach, yet to lose a game! Great work guys! And with only 7 players before half time, and 8 after! Lara, dropping back from the Women's to make up the numbers, scored 3 great touchdowns, and Will and John scored one each.

The Womens & Mens both played in the last time slot, and since I didn't see any of the Men's, I'll only briefly mention that they lost. 7-2. Matt M-S & Simon L were the scorers.

The Women's team was unsuccessful, too, but looked great in the first half. Keeping the Wolves within their half for about 3/4 of the half, we really only made one major defensive error, which they promptly capitalised upon, and scored. I had the feeling at half time that we were going to roll them, but unfortunately they scored a couple of touchdowns early in the second half. Eventually, we broke the drought and Ellen scored, but it was too late for a comeback, and the final score was 3-1. Let's face it, the Lewickis make that team!

Another game coming up on Sunday, with the Mixed & Juniors playing at 1:00pm, and the Womens at 2:00pm. Hang around if you can, to watch the Mens play at 3:00pm. Let's beat those Sting-gays.
