Things to work on:
1.Not rushing play
2. More rotations and stretching field (yet again)
3. Marking and close space on defence
28 February 2012
Venue: Sunningdale
Opponents: WPCC
With this game being our last before playoffs as well as us wanting to confirm top spot, the guys arrived relaxed yet ready to go. Wpcc being Wpcc rocked up with 4 players and forfeited the game. Wanting the side to get gametime Bondi helped out Wpcc (#sign of things to come). (Tosser - finds WPCC reg forms and mails Bondi #FU)
Little sooner had the game started than Bondi had already scored after running through the team. #Fail Mutual 0 - 1 Wpcc (Tosser - I have seen Bondi play.......i doubt this happened)
With Mutual not in the game at all Wpcc passed it around them and got another. Mutual 0 - 2 Wpcc
Mutual finally strung some passes together which eventually resulted in a shorty. Import continuing his run of form and slotting top left. Mutual 1- 2 Wpcc
The lads were not holding the ball well and as such Wpcc were finding it easy to get circle entries. A shorty was forced and put away. Mutual 1- 3 Wpcc. #cleansheetonedaygiger.
This wasn't a good time for the 2s as they had only been in this position once before and it showed. Bickering like little bitches made it easier for Wpcc as the middle wasn't held and Bondi picked up a pass and ran down the spine of the field eventually being closed but performed the best and obvious stick-block ever over. Bondi could be heard giggling to himself. #wellreffedgoose Wpcc scored from the resulting shorty. Mutual 1- 4 Wpcc Halftime
A nice kakout session ensued during the break and Mutual came out looking ready to get into the game. With us finally keeping the ball for more than 10 seconds, a shorty was found and Import put away another. Mutual 2- 4 Wpcc
Mutual now thought that they were in the clear yet forgot that defending was a big part of the game. An overlap on the right gave Bondi an easy tap-in. Mutual 2- 5 Wpcc
It was at this time that Skywalker and Fanny had had enough and decided to go off at the team. A noticeable improvement started to show and eventually we had an overlap Fanny had a 2 on 1 which he put away. Mutual 3- 5 Wpcc
With the pace really picking up and we finally playing hockey we got another shorty which Import put away for his hatrick. Mutual 4- 5 Wpcc
Mutual changed formation and it seemed to be working, as Dutch got a pass in the top lefthand corner and gave a 45 ball to Brundle who slotted it in. Mutual 5- 5 Wpcc
With the game now getting quite cagey Mutual pushed forward with numbers but a quick turnover led to a 1 on 1 between Bondi and Giger and it was an easy goal thru his legs. Mutual 5- 6 Wpcc
4 minutes to go and Curly decided to take it upon himself. He made a tackle with his customary 3 points (knee on the ground), but gooses great reffing let him play on and Curly ran the whole field to get a shorty, ironically off their guys 3 points. Import put it away. Mutual 6-6 Wpcc
After a quick restart some sloppy marking let Wpcc into the circle and got another. Mutual 6- 7 Wpcc
Not to be outdone, Skywalker gave a great ball through which Wilson deflected straight into the keeper. With years of experience (and I mean yeeeeears), Wilson calming controlled it and beat the keeper. Mutual 7 -7 Wpcc
Sloppy game by our lofty standards yet much better 2nd half. Besides good prep for Semi-final.
Mutual 4- 0 Wpcc (forfeit)
Well done as well to the 2s for topping the log. 5 wins and 1 draw put us top with 16 points. Durbanville next up in Semi-final. (Tosser - Seems like Bondi is just as useful to a Non-Mutual side whether he is wearing the green of Mutual or not.....#TellHim)
Brilliance personified
Mighty 2s
