Belmont Reserves Versus Kenwick at Mills Park 12 May 2012 – Pregame

We’re looking forward to a big game this week after 2 good nights on the training track. With the benefit of omission of a few of our softer players from the team due to holidays, work and Josh Laker returning to Vic to be with his mummy for Mother’s Day, we are all set to take on the ex-Sunday League champions Kenwick at their home Mills Park.

We do still have numerous important players out of our squad due to work commitments, injuries to league players & direct orders by General Soreness to take it easy but we’re lucky to refresh the squad with new players on the track each week. The biggest boost are the inclusions of club stalwarts Jayson Hall (Junior), Simon Byrde (Birdie) & Steve Loiacono (Kouta) to the line-up. Adding this experience through the lines should help give us some hardness which we’ve been lacking in recent shellackings.

We currently have a percentage of 8.72, so we’ll be aiming to get this into double figures this week.

Belmont Bombers Reserves versus Gosnells – Pregame

After 2 massive defeats at the hands of Swan Valley & Canning the realization of the difficulties in moving up a grade with an inexperienced outfit have hit hard but all hope is not lost, although expectations are a little lower than before.

I only took over the reigns as reserves coach 1 week before the season proper after the shock resignation of  the league coach left the clubwith the feelinthreat numbers on the track were to poor to justify his time.

Numbers are not the problem but experience & fitness are probably behind the better clubs at this level.

Coming up against Gosnells this week will likely be another awakening, but I can’t wait to see how much we’ve improved since last week. We managed to get more ressie players on the track this week although there’ll be over 10 changes from last week’s squad due to FIFO’s, soft tissue injuries, holidays and ghosts.

An hour on the old Five point drill (foot, hand, left & right) followed up by half an hour of 101 in midfield stoppage education saw an after 8pm finish and hopefully leads to an increase in efficiency and endurance on Saturday.

Thanks for reading my blog, see you after Saturday
