Another big week at the club with three hotly contested games with 1 win and 2 losses the end result of the three teams efforts. Another big week on the track as we front up to the weekends challenges with the Women taking on Oakleigh AT HOME in a must win game while the Men’s teams take on Old Paradians AWAY in two very winnable games.


The third term saw some wayward kicking which let MHSOB back into the contest and we took a 14 lead into the final term. We managed to keep the opposition scoreless and eventually ran away with a 23 point victory in grand style. It was the clubs first win at the ground in 20 years.
Perennial superstar Darra Conlon continued his stellar season across half back while onballer John Robinson was instrumental in the clinches. Mark O’Driscoll booted 2 goals (in only his second game) while first gamer Stephen Boland kicked 2 goals. Key Power Forward “Danger” Dan Stuart also got on the scoresheet. Adriel Long and Paddy Baxter were prominent.

THE SENIORS came out after last week’s improved yet disappointing performance looking to find a way to curtail the MHSOB juggernaut. Despite another slow start, the boys were very competitive chasing and harassing and keeping the opposition in check for large periods of the first half. A couple of late lapses saw MHSOB pile on some goals in quick succession but the boys were hanging tough in an otherwise even contest around the ground.

Swingman Jeremy Hill booted another 3 goals while James Ditchfield played a strong debut in defence drifting forward to kick a goal in his first game. Big forwards Dermott Lindley and Dave Cameron booted a goal each.
Overall a much improved effort despite the scoreboard.
THIS WEEK the the Women take on Oakleigh AT HOME in a must win game while the Men’s teams take on Old Paradians AWAY in two very winnable games.
See you on the weekend!
