Close call but its a win.

After a comfortable win last week against Salvatorians, Old Parks gave us much more of test as we knew they would. Unfortunately we list last weeks two goal hero Tudge after 10 minutes with a torn muscle but we introduced a more than capable replacement in McLawrence who kept probing down the left. The deadlock was broken with a great strike from Jobber who ran through the heart of the Parks defence to cooly slot past the on-rushing keeper. The lead was doubled just before halftime again from Jobber after a well worked move. We realised that the oppo would throw everything at us in the second half but we created chance after chance only to squander them. They pulled one back with 2 minutes to go and hit the bar with the last kick of the game. A big thank you to both the referee and the opposition today as they were both superb and it made for a great game. The MOM was a close call today between Strathern at the back and Jobber. But Jobber just edged it with two goal display.
