Provided he gets through fine (touchwood) , the only reason Lambert won't be in the seniors next week is if we want to build up his match fitness first.

Brown has been solid across HB.

Maurice sounds like he’s everywhere

[one-eyed]

Sonsie's kick to Aarts in the corridor was risky but it pays off. Gets to Maurice who hits up Lefau 35 out. Doesn't mark the distance  but Clarke crumbs a goal  .

Rich  9.7-61
Foot  7.7-49

[one-eyed]

Maurice sounds like he’s everywhere

He misses a couple of sitters early but has been very good since. He's working hard and it's paying off.

[one-eyed]

Back to front forward line. It should be Ryan leading with Hicks waiting at ground level not the other way around.

Anyway we get it back and Banks finds Olden 35 out by the boundary. Goes to the goalsquare and it's rushed.

62 - 51
