15A’s vs St Joseph’s College – Saturday 17 June
A strong Shore side on a three-game win streak came up against a Joeys side. The boys started strong from the go, keeping possession, and making opportunities. After knocking on the door multiple times, the space and time finally opened for Brian Thorpe with a good passing play to end with a nice finish by him. The team were constantly applying pressure to Joeys and another opportunity came for Liam Brell and he calmly slotted in the goal to put the team up 2 – 0. A determined opposition kept on persisting and against the run of play got a counterattack where a penalty was given. They slotted it in the bottom corner making the score 2 – 1 to tighten up the game. Another goal by Brian saw Shore up 3 – 1 and comfortably hold and dominate the game to have an easy finish to the game and secure another win for the 15A’s. A standout performance by Brian Thorpe.

| First XI | St Josephs | Loss | 0 | 3 | Always a good, hard match against Joeys. Needed to be solid for the first 20 minutes to set the tone for the day. Unfortunately, another mistake early put Shore in a difficult situation to chase the game again, 1 – 0 down at half-time and well in the game the second-half was going to be a good contest. Another poor decision took the game out of reach, coupled with the fact that Charlie Mattison would run out of steam on his return from injury. Aggression and discipline in our defensive duties keep letting Shore down as does confidence in offense. Not conceding early will give Shore more confidence in attack and lead to more wins. |
