With Rob & Burke both having to pull out with injury and sickness respectively, we had to draft in Chris L who hadn't played for a while. This week saw Ken returning to the field alongside Mercer who relunctantly played due to injury himself.
The game started with Futures keeping possession with quick 1-2's around the half-way line as we defended deep. You can understand why they won last season and are currently top this one, for a young team they work hard supporting each other in attack. However, we defended really well and with Graeme producing an outstanding performance in goal, (one lad commented after one magic moment stating "fuck, he's just saved it doin the splits").
Ken had a really good first game back and Chris, along with Craig, pulled off some good long range goals. David got goal of the game for me, skinned 2/3 players and then slotted it top corner.
Overall we defended really well as a team and even though they might have had more possession, I would say we had more chances. Hopefully we can make more of them count in the future but it was a satisfying victory against a mouthy team of youngsters!
Goals: Chris (3), Craig (3), David (1)
Team: Chris, Craig, David, Graeme, Ken, Mercer, Ste H
