Coaches Blog - 14 May

Monday, 14th May 2012

After trailing by 28 points deep into the 3rd quarter, the boys staged a remarkable recovery to run out comfortable 5 goal winners at Steel Blue Oval on Saturday afternoon in front of our vocal supporters. Victory looked a long way away even at half time where we had a number of players in real trouble both in regards to form, but more importantly injury. The quality of the win was made even better by the fact that our team was able to fight through some adversity and prevail in tough, hot conditions. Murray Newman suffered a severe cork to his leg and could barely run but took his place on the field after the break to give us a lively target in the front half. Wes Lammie and Jarrhan Jacky both had pain killing injections at half time in order to take their place and both did a fantastic job in the ruck and in forward roles respectively. Micheal Walters came alive in the second half and kicked 4 goals and was instrumental in many others as we began to get on top in the middle of the ground. Lammie, Riggio, Roberts and then Faulkner all stepped up and started to win the contested footy after being belted in this area for the first 60 minutes. Jarrad Blight, who had lowered his colours to Callum Sinclair in the first half, fought back hard to get on top in that battle at center half back. Tim Geappen was superb all day in attack in a complete performance and Wayde Twomey was strong and composed in the back 6 and also provided us with great ball use as well. Tony Notte was thrown around all day also but responded brilliantly, taking 10 marks along the way in what was his best game in season 2012. Special mention must go to ex Subiaco player Shaun Hildebrandt who ran himself to absolute exhaustion to be one of our best. Also to Tallan Ames who held his full forward to only the 1 touch for the game in an almost perfect defensive display. Ryan Davis also continued his fine form with a strong 3 goal return. We have moved to 5 – 2 but with all of the top 4 winning on Saturday, we still remain in 4th position. We travel to East Fremantle next week to take on who I regard as equal to the best in the competition at this time. It will be a real test, but our confidence is high after a stunning turn around on the weekend.
