Slow start to the season, plagued with 3 injuries (Linley, Daniel and Peter) before the match ... and then David injuring his ankle, makes it 4. New team member Ramsey was a welcome addition.

Two new players Ben and Cameron welcomed on-board this week. Greatly needed, especially now that Mark has injured his hand, meaning that we've got 5 players on the bench :( Note: A hand injury didn't stop Mark from scoring !

Gave the opposition a head-start. Got it together in the middle. But, lost ground again at the end.

We got off to a slow start 0-6, 8 minutes in and it looked like we were in for a drubbing with the turnovers happening all too often.

But then Jason does what he does best - put Centro Boomers points on the board and it was game on. At half time we were down by 5 points, but we could sense they were buckling. Their star shooters from the previous game #7 and #5 had been well guarded.

The second half commenced well as we got the first 2 points. Geoff started sinking them and was strong under the basket, Cam followed up with a fast break lay up and like Jason tried to take a specky, Mark was great in defence and used his body well against the very physical team, Ramsey defended well and added some humour with a footy like tackle on an opposition lay up and the fisting of the ball out of the pack.

The scoring from the bench (opposition) left a bit to be desired with confusion on the scoreboard clock. With 20 seconds to go and both teams with 8 team fouls, we appeared to be 1 point up with 20 seconds to go before the ball was snatched away by the opposition #7 for a successful shot. The siren sounded and we all congratulated each other on a great team game. We then heard in fact the score was in our favour and we had actually won 27-26. But after a review by the ref, we had in fact lost narrowly to the Vales 25-26, so our winning feeling was short-lived. However we still had a wry smile on our faces as by this time the Vales had left the court with heads down believing they had lost to the superior team.

It was a enjoyable team game, but also a physical one, with all of us most probably feeling a bit sore in some places this morning.

The 6 who played last night have probably asked the question to themselves since , "if I........then....." But as we know there is always next week.
