Round 11 – Beecroft Blue Giants, Tomorrow we travel out to Beecroft for Round 11. Unfortunately Beecroft have officially withdrawn from the Whiddon, Judd and Sutherland competitions so tomorrow will only feature the Barbour, Burke and Kentwell sides. Good luck to all players tomorrow, the games you should win are very often the hardest to take out so come prepared to play tomorrow, Beecroft away is never an easy task. The Judd and Sutherland sides have organised Halligan fixtures to maintain their match fitness so good luck to those guys as well. Whiddon have given themselves a break and will no doubt be spotted for an early morning swim/gym/coffee in Bondi followed by lunch at the Woollahra to get a head start on the rest of the club. No need to wish them luck. Game times vs Beecroft @ Headen Park, Thornleigh 3:15pm Kentwell Cup Halligan Fixtures: Game 1 After playing in all corners of the city, hot foot it back to the Woollahra Hotel to join the Whiddon boys and trade war stories from the day, while enjoying all the great hospitality that the Hotel offers to colleagues players. |
