InCode Engineers - Colts Match Preview
Andrew Thomson
After a well fought game last week against Morningside Sherwood Colts now have a 1-2 record. Broadbeach have had 2 victories and a bye but at this stage of the season it is still too early to know the pecking order of the competition, especially with players coming and going from Senior & Reserves Football, and next week the academy interruptions commence!
n such a short season todays match becomes a must win game if we are going to make finals. The Colts are looking forward to having a dry track and this should help our preferred ball movement. We have a few changes and welcome Jonty Macdougall into the side for the first time this season. We are hoping his speed and natural football ability will lead to a number of score involvements going forward.
The coaches have put pressure on the group to come together and ensure they bring energy and effort for all four quarters.
We are a looking to seeing Zane Barrett build on his great game from last week and the rest of the forwards to staying more connected and being more damaging as we go forward.
We feel our mids are starting to work well together and have better understanding of their individual roles. We are excited to see Tom Kearney continue his fine form and looking for massive games from Sean Ryan and Josh Lane.
Our backs keep building and we are looking to be more daring and attacking this week. This will be led by Lawson Campbell and Will Radcliffe driving our backs to be more creative coming out of our defensive 50. Our backs continue to be led by great defensive play from Brodie Gardner , Tom Evans and and Oscar Murphy and this will play a massive role to ensure we come away with the victory.
