Round 6 Match ReportCoburg Tigers websiteSeniorsWe met arch rivals Williamstown at ABD Stadium in perfect conditions.
We got away to a great start having 4 goals on the board before Williamstown scored their first goal.
By the end of the first quarter we had registered 6 majors and we dominated that quarter with drive through the midfield from Thomson, Hislop and Power.
The 2nd quarter was an even tussle with both sides being very inaccurately in front of goals with us kicking 1.7 to Willi 2.7.
The 2nd half was just a nightmare with Williamstown kicking 11.7 to 1.0 in the 3rd quarter and putting an end to our chances of winning.
Everything we did in the first half just did not happen in the 2nd half and it was very disappointing.
Coburg: 6.4 7.11 8.11 11.15
Williamstown: 1.3 3.10 14.17 20.18
Goals:Lawton 2, Duhau, Hislop, Collins, McMahon, Thomson, King, Morton, Power, Jordon
Best: Connors, Power, Clifton, Duhau, Browne.
Reserves: The boys were keen to do well against our 2007 Reserves premiership coach Adam Potter who joined Williamstown this year.
While we were never in front on the scoreboard,the boys were always in the hunt,but Williamstown’s experience told out in the end.
James Kandalakis played his best game for the club and gave us great drive through the middle and also kicked 3 running goals.
Also Murphy Ambrose was solid across half back and Brendan Fewster again showed he will be a valuable player for us as the year goes on.
Rob Hicks could push for senior promotion in the coming weeks as his pace around half forward is important.
Coburg: 2.3 4.7 7.12 12.14
Williamstown: 5.1 9.6 11.10 16.12
Goals:Kandalakis 3, Cattapan 2, M.Ambrose 2, Geister 2, Fewster, Lucin, Dennis
Best: Fewster, Kandalakis, Hicks, Cattapan, M.Ambrose
Next game will be against Northern Bullants at NAB Oval on May 29th.
