Our captains for the game Ace Brodie and Angus Moller led out our team for their first home game. We played with 16 players for the first half, with Murrumbeena loaning us 2 players in the second half.
Despite being 2 players short on the ground this week, the boys all put in a huge effort with some great marks taken. Our team play is improving and the boys are starting to hold their positions. We had a slow start in the first half again this week with 1 point being kicked by Mitchell Morison (11). Murrumbeena kicked 2 goals 6 points. Having 2 players short led to the boys being out numbered and swamped when the ball came their way, however it did not dampen their enthusiasm and efforts in play.

A special thanks to Murrumbeena loaning us 2 boys in the second half balancing the numbers. To our advantage, Beaumaris went on to kick 1 goal and 1 behind early in the third quarter with Murrumbeena not scoring for that term.
Mitchell Morison (11)was very unlucky to have his goal disallowed after playing on advantage after the umpires whistle. His subsequent free kick was then marked by the opposition.
Matthew Edwards (7) kicked our 2 goals for the morning with Mitchell Morison scoring 2 points.
All boys played well. Special mentions to to Thomas Bray, Ace Brodie, Jacob Edwards, Lachlan Morison and David Pain.
Coach's Awards - Lachlan Morison (12) & David Pain (18).
Our first Shark of the Month was held that night at home at Shark Park (Banksia Reserve). It was good to see many of our boys there.
Congratulations to Thomas Bray who was our first Shark of the Month. Well done Thomas!
