Blues downed by Belco

The mighty Blues took on ADFA, with a bits and pieces side missing plenty not expected to do much, even by our own players and supporters.

However, everyone got a huge surprise when the boys showed heart, courage, passion and skill before being over run in the second half

The match was fast and furious for the first quarter, with both teams working to their best. The Blues ran with the wind, with the forwards taking their chances and the backs rebounded attack after attack. The Blues took a tiny lead into the first break, and cmae out firing in the second.

Googs was enjoying his return to footy after a month off, and Cabbie was finding space and working hard. Vis was a great target up forward, whilst the midfield of Steamer, Starkey, Dicko and Stabby were dominating the midfield.

The boys kicked 5 goals straight and looked to have Belco on the ropes before the Magpies showed their typical courage and determination to fight back to get within a kick at the long break.

The third quarter saw the Blues fight hard, but Belco took the most of their chances and opened up a two goal lead at the final break.

Woden scored early, but Belco bounced back and the margin became insurmountable.

It was yet another 'honourable' defeat. The boys have suffered too many of them this year, and its about time for a win

Woden take on ANU at Uni oval this Saturday. The boys have only won once there, so it will be a big challenge but one we are confident in, with up to 4 of our best team due back....
