match Report: Coach Dave bennett and Team Manager Natalie bennett

Player of the Match: Sam Bonaffini
Sam gave 110% today, he was always in the contest and he never gave up. He just kept on fighting right through till the final siren.

Volunteer of the Week: We have a number of amazing volunteers who put their hands up every week! Dave Dawes our Assistant Coach is at every single training session helping out with all the drills and you can always rely on him to give the boys a big rev up when they need it! Cam Lappin does Goal Umpire every week and when the league provide goal umpires, he’s always happy to help out with other jobs. Karley McCahon does lollies every week and is another parent who is always willing to help out in any other role required, except Goal Umpire because the kiwi doesn’t know the rules! 😂

Sam Bonaffini, Tarrant Gniel and Hunter Slama showed true grit and determination! They just did not stop running all game, they did everything we asked of them and as coaches we can’t ask for any more than that.

Charlie Bennett shows great courage every week by constantly putting his body on the line. He is never afraid to tackle the biggest players and this has been his best season by far and we can’t wait to see what else he has to give us.

Not just this game, but every week, Himi Schwalger impresses us all! He joined the Titan’s last season and has been playing up an age group. Considering he had never played before, he just gets better and better every week! In the two seasons he's been with us, we've heard him say about 3 words, but he always shows up and leaves with a smile on his face. Himi is one of the most loved players in our team and is truly valued by all his team mates.

Jack "Jacko" Halder played his 100th game today and although we didn’t come away with the win, the boys made it their mission to get the ball to Jack for him to kick a goal on his 100th game and they fought with everything they had and after kicking 2 behinds, he got his goal in the last 30 seconds of the game!

The boys staged a mutiny early on in the season and took control of the pump up music because apparently my 80’s rock was just terrible (way to make a guy feel old!) Today there was an unveiling of Tarrant’s new speaker which they were all pretty excited about.

This season has been challenging for the U15 Green Team to say the least and to be able to see these kids get through to finals is amazing! But we would not have been able to get where we are without the help of our fill-in players from the U13 Blue, U14 Blue and U14 Green: Jameson McLardie, Zane Bergles-Brown, Cooper Murphy, Jayden Harry, Brodie Riddell, Hamish McLardie, Chris Van Greunen, Sam Waters, Declan Laidler, Patrick Cutts, Kayden Tate, Logan Tate, Ben Soderlund, Ryan Suhr, Liam Maillard, Ethan Smith, Blake Hamblin, Levi Fato. Thank you very much to all these kids who not only play two games nearly every week, but they are playing longer quarters and against kids twice their size! And a special shout out to the parents who are the ones ferrying them all over town to get them to our games because without them, we wouldn’t have been able to play.
