I finally ventured down to Rutland Ave today to take in my 1st Lockleys game of the year, the B's had their chances but credit to Smithfield who stuck to it and took the points today.
Lockleys A's had a very depleted squad (I heard Smithfield had quite a few out as well) but the fellas selected stuck to their task and ran out fairly comfortable winners, the margin should have been a lot wider but the Dees wasted a lot of opportunities in front of goal. If you'd asked me before the game, i'd have been happy to just get over the line, a 30 point win over a side that hasn't lost a game since Jesus was a boy is a great result.
The other thing I really noticed today was the number of former Lockleys juniors playing A grade today, I think I counted 10 that were within a year of my son's sides when he was there as well as a heap more in the B's, the C's are stacked full of them as well.
