I was at First Grade and am unbiased as i play for another SL club.
Redbacks deserved winnners 2-1 after contolling most of the game.
Reds moved tge ball past and Pats looked dangerous when in transition.
Reds scored a really nice headed equaliser off a header and then the Pommy left winger Max scored the deserved winner.
Magic didn't look himself and was obviously not 100%.
Max was brilliant and got around his defender countless times.
I found the constant ribbing of the Pats players humorous as they started to lose the plot with late challenges and eventually their captain got sent off. Seems they like dishing it out but not the other way. Knobs.
Redbacks deserved Champions
Proud of the lads, second consecutive year in the first grade SL grand final, against two quality sides - NERDS (last year) and Redbacks this year.
For a relatively small club, we're building a strong squad with good depth in both grades and hopefully a few new recruits on the cards for next year.
We beat Redbacks twice this year but hats off to them, they were the better side on Saturday and passed the ball around nicely.
For those calling us 'knobs', well it's easy to comment form the sideline. When you make the grand final, you're more than welcome to play your style of football on the day...
Already buzzing for next year...enjoy the off season all.
Results??
