The rest of the teams travelled to Narre Warren, and it was a tough day in the netball as all senior teams came away with losses, but the B Grade side put up an awesome effort to just fall short, while the other teams had suffered big losses against top quality opponents.

In the footy, the Ressies put up their best effort for the year, great team play and solid defence gave the team an opportunity to cause the upset of the year. Unfortunately, a couple of lapses in the final minutes allowed Narre Warren to hit the front with the final kick of the day.
Final scores Narre Warren 11.2, 68 defeated Woori Yallock 10.5, 65. Top Tigers were Luke Cottier, Hamish Gemmill, Matthew Imbrogno, Tom Kear, Chris Lower and Callum Scott.
In the Seniors, it was two undefeated teams going head to head and it certainly lived up to expectations. The first half was dominated by defence with only 7 goals kicked. In the third quarter, the game opened up with Woori gaining good momentum and hitting the scoreboard to take a two-goal lead into the final break. Unfortunately for the Tigers, the Magpies adjusted well and hit the front in the final minute for a narrow victory. Both sides would have been happy with the result given the finals-like pressure.
Final scores Narre Warren 10.7, 67 defeated Woori Yallock 9.8, 62. Top Tigers were Jordan Williams, Zach Monkhorst, Bradd Arnold, Robert Allen, Liam Odea and Joshua Neal.
This week, Woori Yallock will host Olinda-Ferny Creek in what’s sure to be another tough fixture.
