It was back to the winners list for the grand View Hotel Bayside bombers on the weekend with a hard fought win ovewr the Moorooka Roosters at Vitoria Point last Saturday.
With four consecutive losses haunting Bombers coach Russell Crowe, the Baysiders doug deep on Saturday to put a win on the board and with the next two games at home, bring the season home strong with a win on home turf.
The Roosters were gallant and kept with 10 points for most of the game, but it would be Big Jason March that kept the margin growing with his accuracy of 5.1, that behind hitting the post from a set shot only 20 meters in front of goals.He was assisted by Mike Caviar and Scott Houston up forward who also provided options
With Big Russ Bagnall back after a serious knee injury that could have seen him hang up the boots, and the return of Sam French the Bombers once in front did not let the Roosters get within 10 points for the rest of the match. With Teale Weller and Boots Taylor back into the line up after missing the last few games, the springboard of defence to attack was back and the relentlessness of Ada Roberts and local hero Rodney Neilsen on the ball was the difference between the two sides at final siren time. “a great all round effort today from the boys” assistant team manager Al Hazell said after the game, “Big bags and Caviar on the scoreboard too was great to see” Next werek will be a test, Palm Beach always hard to beat, we need to have our game plan worked out for the visitors this week.
