A very testing Saturday for the Chaos.
Our first "real" first -field game and we play one player short! Nice! But a nice finish from Justine in the first-half had us thinking of an improbable win only for our legs to tire in the second-half. Our opponents capitalized on a mistake to draw level, but we still had enough in the tank to ensure the game ended all-square. Overall we played pretty well and might have knicked a win with a bit more luck.
The second game was always going to be the tough one. Bays are a big, fast, physical team who knock the ball around pretty well, plus they had the advantage of our second game coming as their first. So it was no surprise that with a full bench and fresh legs they made most of the running and eventually ran-out easy winners. On a different playing surface (perhaps one where the grass isn't ten inches long) and with a couple more subs we likely leave the field much content.
However the point of the weekend's game is to further understand the 11-a-side game so I think it was a success regardless of the results.
Congrats to the Chaos who played on the Sunday for the Silver squad. I understand you went undefeated and scored a bunch of goals.
Hope to see everyone at upcoming assessments on Tuesday.
