ROUND 1 REVIEW

MEN’S PREMIER DIVISION:

SWS Blues 12.9.81
UTS Bats 5.9.39

Southwest Sydney Blues started this season in emphatic fashion defeating the UTS Bats by seven straight goals at Monarch Oval.

The two sides fought grimly over the first three quarters, with the Blues leading by one point at half time and then by five points three-quarter time, which set up a fascinating final quarter. The Southwest Sydney faithful will be very happy with their six-goal to zero final quarter, finishing off the Bats and gaining valuable percentage at the start of the season

Blues forward Josh Croft produced an excellent performance, kicking 4 vital goals in a perfect start for the Blues. Blake Jarvis and James Kennedy added 2 goals each for the Southwest Sydney outfit. Lewis McCormack kicked 2 goals for the Bats, who’ll be slightly disappointed in falling away in the last quarter after an excellent three-quarter effort

Best players for the Blues with Jacob Croft, representative ruckman Finbar Delbridge, Callum Burns, Max Lower, Lachlan Maples and Eddie Keogh. The Bats were best served by Hamish Latchford, George Boyd, Henry Gosse, Oscar Doland, Louis Pribula and Ed Palmer.


North Shore 7.12.54
Pennant Hills 6.8.44

In an engrossing broadcast fixture on Saturday at a damn Gore Hill Oval, Pennant Hills gave North Shore a real run for their money before the Bombers ran out victors. The Demons, with seven debutantes, tackled and hustled North Shore for four full quarters, and the Bombers will be relieved to have secured four points on the day they unfurled their premiership flags in front of the faithful at Gore Hill.

Small forward Matt Buskariol kicked 2 majors, with limited opportunities, for North Shore. The Prince Theo Moraitis kicked 2 majors for Pennant Hills as the Demons fell just short of producing an enormous upset. Burly Demons half-forward Nick Hey submitted an early candidate for goal of the season with a ridiculous mid-air effort from the boundary line, setting Social Media alight.

Best players for North Shore were key back Mitchell Rogers, James Tidemann, small forward Finn Chalmers, Will Giacometti, ruckman Thomas Drum and Max Toohey. The Demons’ best players were skipper Mitchell Blow, Nick Hey, Nick Eynaud, Josh Everett, Lachlan Willey and key back Luka Jordaan.


UNSW-ES 14.11.95
St George 6.4.40

In the in the Sunday fixture at Henson Park, the University of NSW-Eastern Suburbs Bulldogs showed they are on track for a finals berth with a resounding 55-point win over a resolute St George Dragons.

The match was played in a strong southerly breeze, and Bulldogs captain Will Spencer had no hesitation in running with the breeze in the first quarter. The Bulldogs jumped out to a 27-point lead at quarter-time and went on with the job in an excellent start to their season. The Dragons kicked four goals in the final quarter, kicking down breeze, and as always, did not stop fighting until the final siren sounded.

New recruits Hugo Birks kicked 4 goals for the Bulldogs and returning veteran Kieran Emery kicked 3. The Bulldogs faithful will want to see these two playing in tandem throughout the season, as they caused enormous headaches for the Dragons key backs. Indeed, if Birks had had his kicking boots on, he may have kicked 7 or 8 goals. Mac Winchester kicked 2 goals for the Dragons in the final quarter.

Best players for the Bulldogs were Thomas Baxter, Oscar Peter, Birks, Toby Alker, sublime halfback Cooper Kilpatrick and Louis Kitto. The Dragons were best served by Alex Box, Jack Druery, Eddie Marning, ruckman Nelson Carey, Finn Richie and small forward Cave McKnight.


The remaining 2 fixtures, between Manly Warringah and East Coast, and Inner West versus Sydney University were cancelled due to inclement weather and will be replayed later in the season
