Under 16 Boys Round 9

Geelong Cats 52 lost to Diamond Valley 54

Top Scorers: A. Motiani 15, B. Mayes 10, R. Kennedy 9

Coach’s Comment: “Playing at Diamond Valley’s home fortress was never going to be easy and it didn’t help our cause getting off to another slow start. At half time the boys were still down 36-26 needing some inspiration to get back on even terms. It was not until late in the final quarter that Geelong started to close the gap, but it was not enough in the time remaining as some less than favourable decisions combined with missed opportunities resulted in a narrow two-point loss.”

Top Scorers: J. McFall 16, N. Lemke 14, D. Duggan 7
