SATURDAY 9 SEPTEMBER JESSIE ODELL CHELSEA HEIGHTS While there were a number of players to stand out for the Heighters in their hard- fought Second Semi Final win over Keysborough, Odell’s efforts early on when the game was in the balance were vital. The versatile former Chelsea Seagull won plenty of the footy in the forward half and constantly looked to move the ball quickly and take the game on. As a result, Odell created plenty of scoring opportunities in the first half, which helped Chelsea Heights build what turned out to be a match-winning lead. Congratulations, Jessie!
SUNDAY 10 SEPTEMBER MITCHELL SMART BENTLEIGH The powerful and athletic ruckman was a pillar of strength for Bentleigh as they outlasted St Pauls in their cut-throat First Semi Final clash on Sunday. Smart dominated in the ruck all day, giving his midfield brigade first use from the stoppages in a superb big-game performance that belied his teenage years. A first-year Demon, Smart has been one of the great finds in Division 1 this year and his stellar form has been one of the key factors behind Bentleigh’s resurgence in the back half of the year. Congratulations, Mitchell!
