RESERVES:

Quarter Time

Roosters - 3.1 = 19

Norwood - 2.5 = 17


Redlegs were wasteful in front of goal while North made the most of their forward entries with good conversion...

As to be expected, skills were pretty rusty across the board as players are adapting to their first hit out against real opposition...

RESERVES:

Half Time

Norwood - 8.11 = 59

Roosters - 4.3 = 27


GOAL KICKERS:

Norwood - P.Persinos 3, S.Baldasso 2, J.Savage, L.Rander, P.Lockie 1

Roosters - M.McMahon, Z.Makins, L.Teasdale, S.Deleonardis 1



Much better quarter of football from the Legs that term, skills were much better and they generally made the most of their opportunities inside 50 (excluding Jimmi Savage who missed a soccer goal from inside the goal square !!) but their pressure all over the ground has forced the Roosters to cough up the ball.

North just faulted under pressure and their skill execution was much worse than the first quarter. Clint Alleway played CHF but the ball came into his area maybe 3 or 4 times for the quarter.
