Round 11

AJAX v Old Carey
Against a strong wind in the first quarter, AJAX put in their best team defensive effort for the season. The players pressured the ball carrier at all times and played tempo football as instructed. AJAX didn’t take full advantage of a strong breeze in the second quarter, kicked inaccurately for goal, and lacked urgency and aggression towards the football.
Energy and effort was there in the third quarter, but leaked too many goals to put ourselves in a position to win. A huge final effort in the final quarter, where the message was to play aggressive football and move the ball quickly, which resulted in our highest scoring fourth quarter for season. Kudos to the team for this, as we were undermanned for most of the second half due to injuries.
A fair effort for most of the game given key players were injured early in the game.
Five players kicked their first goals for the season which is pleasing for the boys.
We continue to blood players in the team with 45 players now played for the Development team this season. The team is still working towards putting in a 4 quarter performance, and with six rounds remaining, the spirits are up and a Win not far away.
