A CHILLY start but the sun came out just in time for a great round eight against Wandong under nines.

The team implemented what they’ve been practicing at training, strong voice, great tackling and impressive use of handball in tight spaces.

Some great encouragement from coach Happy saw the team control the play on occasion looking to slow a fast-paced Wandong onslaught.

The wind didn’t favour any end and was nothing but cold, which seemed to suit the..
