Coaches Comments Game 10 Vs. Marist Black

It was nice to win 2 in a row for the first time this season. We played Marist Black beating them 31 to 27. Wayne continues to keep his try scoring average high touching down 4 times. It was good to see Finau get over the line for 1 try also. James M converted 3 of the tries we got.

Once again it was pleasing to see the team be a bit more cohesive in their play. We still need to be watchful of not kicking the ball forward in the scrums and at times the rucks but overall it was a satisfying win against a good team. Ryan had a good game at halfback directing the forwards well in the malls which earned him the player of the day award. He has been improving every game throughout the season.

Kerain played well making some runs on the wing which earned him the manager’s award. Caleb also earned the managers award for his good play and defence.

James N also did well at the fullback making some good covering tackles.

As always at training we continue to concentrate on tackling and our fitness. We will also be working on making sure we turn in the contact area so we can present the ball to the team. As I said in my last comments we need to protect the ball for the next phase of play.

See you all at training and please remember to bring your boots and mouth guards.
