The Green Island Premier team played at the<br />
Cale against Varsity and to be honest we weren’t<br />
that good and lost 2-0. The problem is if you don’t<br />
do what you are asked you can’t blame the<br />
management, but when you do what you are asked<br />
and it doesn’t work you can blame the<br />
management. MOTM Dan Rutter. Players who<br />
deserved a mention were Simon Chan and Nick<br />
Grant. Next week start of the second round and<br />
things need to be picked up! Flem.<br />
The 2nd Team went to Tonga Park today to<br />
play Cavy in perfect conditions. We had several<br />
call offs a little bit to close to ko for my liking, rallied<br />
round got a couple of players and competed well,<br />
score line says otherwise. Shout out to GD and AK<br />
for their experience and wisdom. Also the three<br />
youngsters Matt, Mitchell and Reece where<br />
exceptional and all have a promising future. I would<br />
also like to thank the boys for battling hard for<br />
playing the whistle and for not contesting and moaning about every decision for<br />
and against. Old heads a suppose. Eric Stephenson<br />
The Third Team took on an inform Caversham at Tonga and with a<br />
settled line up and players on the bench ,we managed to produce some good<br />
football, but again struggled to take advantage of the chances that we had.<br />
Improved performances from the defence forced Caversham into a lot of long<br />
range efforts, and the goal that finally broke the deadlock was worthy of leagues<br />
alot higher than ours. The strikers and wide men had plenty of chances and if we<br />
keep this up we are going to cause some upsets . 3 - 0 down but still a good<br />
effort by the boys<br />
The 4th Team played a good Dunedin Tech side. Against the majority of<br />
play GI scored first only to concede a goal. A super strike from Fadgie had us in<br />
front. Stuttie made some great saves ton keep us ahead. Parata scored his<br />
second goal from a Fadgie cross but a late goal from Tech kept the tenion in the<br />
game. A great result for the 11 GI players MOM Parata for two good goals.<br />
The Oldies Gold played the Tech Colts at Culling Park. Won 6-1. The<br />
boys played some great football on a very small, muddy ground. We scored 4 in<br />
the first half and 3 in the second. A great own goal from Langy.<br />
It must be that extra training he has been doing.<br />
