Our Moddies absolutely carved it up today! Our U9’s in particular, what a performance! Our Moddies are playing some really good footy at the moment. We can clearly see the skills have developed and the desire to do well, and win the ball with lots of team efforts shows our Moddies are quickly learning the Rooster brand of football. Halfway through the season now and we think these kids have found their mojo!⭐️
The Mini Colts had another excellent game. Now that we are in the second half of the season our Minis are focused on refining their skills and structures ready for the Mini Colts Carnival. Our Mini’s Coaching team seem to have a clear, well defined and well communicated goal-focused approach and their results continually prove they are heading in the right direction. Some standout efforts this week were made by Field, Harding, MacDonald, and Stutley. ?
The Junior Colts had a fantastic game and played consistently throughout all four quarters. A fantastic win for this team and it was a great confidence booster for this very young side. Duffield and Matthew’s-Hampton found some sweet spots in the forward lines and kicked 3 goals each. Our Junior Colts coaching team provided each individual player with their personalised, mid-season feedback report today. So we will now see our Juniors capitalising on their current strengths and developing further in specific areas. We look forward to watching this progress ?
Our Senior Colts had a tough game against Encounter Bay. With a few of our older players out with injuries, it was a great opportunity for some of our younger ones to step up. Some great efforts were seen by these younger lads today. Brock Beeching was given a set task this week and his endeavour to try to achieve this was positively noted. Our Senior Colt Roosters also showed some brilliant mentoring today with a couple of little Moddies seen idolising this group. They immediately included these little ones in the pre-game huddle as soon as they saw them in the change rooms ?
The Rooster Reserves had a great first half but the game just got away from them in the last half. Abbott, Kenyon and Rogers led the pack today, claiming the top three BOGs. Our Reserves keep on chipping away and improving each week. The team collegiality is down right obvious. We are all on board the B Grade Brotherhood Train and are loving watching this positive team culture grow ?
Our A grade side showed Encounter Bay how drizzly, slippery, wet weather footy is played. Our Roosters came out of the gates raring to go and didn’t look back. Roosters who were excellent to watch today (IMHO) were our Captain, Micca Elliot and Brodie Martin. Martin’s ability to protect the drop zone and take a secure and reliable grab is second to none. Elliot’s ability to read the play, get in the right spot and push from a stoppage is something our little Roosters should be studying. This was a convincing win given last time this was a close match between the two sides. Maybe our A grade men are ready to show a few top sides a thing or two this time around? Watch this space….. ?
Next week we play at HOME against Willunga. This historic rivalry always makes for a great day of footy. See you there Rooster fans ?
