TRAVELLING to Fish Creek, Thorpdale, even with the many injuries they had were giving themselves a chance of their first win of 2023, that confidence built on the back of some respectable performances in the first fortnight of the season.
However, for the third time in three weeks, the Blues fell agonisingly short, losing to the Lions.
“It was an arm wrestle all day; Thorpdale are a strong side who are well coached. A few strong efforts from our mids and forwards helped us get over the line,” Jarrod Walker, Fish Creek.
The Kangaroos are proving to be a solid outfit, with very few passengers, and will prove to to be a tough outfit to beat against any opposition on their home ground,
The Blues unquestionably are deserving of a reward for their efforts over the first three weeks of 2023, and you sense that reward will be coming sooner rather than later.
However round four offers the task of facing Mirboo North on the Tigers home deck and coming off a loss, so if ever an unlikely win could throw Thorpdale’s season back on track, this would be it.
