It’s a huge game for the Sherwood Colts first up at 10am this morning against competition newcomers the Maroochydore Roos. The 7th placed Colts are yet to hit their straps, yet we are already in the back straight of the home and away season and todays game vs the 6th placed Roos is a huge game in the jostle for finals spots.

With traffic mayhem around on the Bruce Highway, the lads will be looking to hit the road early with a big day ahead of them.

A big focus this week will be the contested ball. Win the ball at the source or bury any opposition player who gets it. The boys have responded well at training, as they always do and it will be exciting to see how they respond in this mornings game.

Oscar Murphy comes out of the side this week due to shin soreness, and Jonty Macdougall follows suit with hip soreness. Both made the decision to sit out this week, showing the team is always bigger than the individual. It’s a big sacrifice in a short season, and some quality replacements come into the side in Connor Bulley and Lawson Campbell.

Each week the coaching staff have been adding a piece to the puzzle as they look to build senior ready footballers, and the Colts side now get another step closer to realising how good they can truly be.

Unbreakable - unconditional support
United - pick your mate up
