Bulls fall short against Edge Hill

THE Mareeba Bulls premier mens’ side suffered a two-nil loss against the Edge Hill Tigers on Sunday afternoon as they attempt to rectify their mistakes ahead of this weekend’s match against Leichhardt.

The Bulls travelled down the hill to face off against Edge Hill who are the benchmark this season.

The visitors started well and had a few shots on goal but defensive lapses enabled Edge Hill to capitalise and put one away in the first half.

Edge Hill came out in the second half and slotted another while keeping the Bulls tied up offensively, the final whistle blew and Bulls never managed to get one back.

“We just switched off a couple times,” coach Kane Alderton said.

“I can’t fault the boy’s effort and commitment they still gave 100 percent – they never gave up.

“We do have a few things to work on but I hope the boys now know what standard they need to be to have a shot at the title.”

The Bulls will now play host to the Leichhardt Lions this Saturday at 7pm.
