An absolutely fantastic day at the Hawka on the weekend with 3 big wins for our last home game of the season in front of a big crowd. The under 19’s and Ressies dominated their games and were both comfortable winners. The seniors sought and got redemption for an earlier defeat against Templestowe to run out winners by 5 goals. The victory now has us sitting 3rd and a win against Chirnside Park this week will secure the double chance. Templestowe, who were on equal points before Saturdays loss, have dropped to 8th spot. It’s not too good for the heart.
I’d like to thank all of our volunteers who get down early to set up for home games, especially Mick Kimmitt and Ellen Johnson. The whole place runs a lot easier with these guys donating so much time and effort. P.S. we still have finals to get through. Haha.
Also a quick thanks to Corey Mckernan for his chat at the Presidents lunch. He gives a great insight into the highs and lows of AFL footy.
The last home and away game this week sees us head off to Chirnside. With all 3 Hawka sides making finals I’d suggest a trip down Maroondah Hwy and show the lads your support before we all get back to the Knox Club and celebrate another 3 wins.
