Hi all, its finally here the last home game of the year Its been a good long season as the business endjustkicksintogear.

Last week down in Millicent in the second bestbeershedwasasolid day for west with our under 14s getting us under way in a tough day for the kids. As I said e v e r y w e e k t h e improvement is their and its evident in the results. This week is a must win for the 14s this week to endtheyearonahigh.

Our 16s went down in a tough game playing Millicent but again never gave up at all and have the side to play deep finals if they put it together

Our 18s boys had a good day and playing some solid football at the right time of year. The big squad of players are putting together some solid quarters of football

Today is a great day for the club with Tom Dolan playing his 300th game for the club. When you h e a r To m ' s n a m e mentioned you never hear a bad word spoken about him. He is a true champion of our club and joins a select list of few to play 300 games at our club.

U16s played a much bigger south team who dominated most of the game.Theboyshadtimes during the game where they controlled the play but couldn't sustain it long enough to make a real impact on the score board.

U18s the guys just didn't have the numbers with half a dozen U16s coming up to fill in the numbers , well done to those lads who put there hands up most weeks to fill in. The guys tried but on the big s o u t h o v a l t h e r e opponents took them to thesword.

Reserves was a good game to watch was probably one of the best games they played all y e a r w i t h M a r k Kieselbach coming out of
