U12 Blue V Zillmere Eagles 15/5/2011 Well, what a hard fought game it was. The Coorparoo boys played all over the eagles maintaining about 70% of the play in their own half of the ground. But unfortuately they couldn't convert that on to the score board. It was a low scoring affair with the Roos going down 1.4.10 to 2.2.14. It was a game where the Roos peppered the forward line in the first quarter with very little result to show for it. Our centre line and rucks were dominant with Sam Ryan and Huddo getting plenty of the ball. In the second quarter Zillmere booted thru 2 goals and that's the way the score stayed until the Roos got 1 goal back in the third quarter. In the final quarter, with the Coorparoo boys kicking to the non scoring end, they never gave up pushing the ball into the 50metre arch time and time again, but to no avail. There were a number of heavy bumps during the contest with Harrison being chaired off in the second quarter with and ankle and booted a major. The game was played mostly injury, but returning later in the game and having a forward of the centre line with the forwards battling to blinder. AJ copped a jarred knee in the second quarter as lock the ball in and the centres continuing to feed the ball well, but to all the boys credit they didn't drop their heads in.

In attack James F marked strongly and goaled, whilst Sean made a wonderful intercept in defence.

A committed and spirited effort from all the team this week as we went down at home to a hard tackling West Junior side. In a low scoring game where there was 5 scoring shots on goal to us and 7 to Wests, we found ourselves just falling short. We won most rucks during the game but lost the ball out of the middle.
