NFC Wheelchair Match Report – Round 3

We knew it was going to be tough against the Eagles, especially after their previous win over Sturt. We went down but not without a last-quarter fight back.

The Eagle’s sharp goal kicking got off to a quick start and we found ourselves chasing from the outset. Our backline had a very strong job to keep their forwards covered with such height to contend with. Much credit goes to our goal scorers in David Gould, Wayne Hale, Wayne McNamara and Holly Gould for keeping us in scoring contention.

Now with a couple of games playing together as a team, we can take some great positives from the match with the Eagles and look to work on our rotations and player positions. All of our team are starting to really gel and are working well together.

We look forward to getting back to training this week and taking on Sturt again back at the Lightsview Community Centre Friday night for Round four.

SCOREBOARD:

NORWOOD: 58

EAGLES: 89

GOALS: Gould 4, Hale 3, H.Gould 2
