Trinity Tips Out Tigers |
|
|
St Bedes/Mentone Tigers went down to Old Trinity in a match where they led in most departments, except the one that counts the most, on the scoreboard. With no breeze to speak of, Old Trinity skipped away to a 3 goal lead before the Tigers troubled the scorer. By half way through the first quarter the Tigers were getting their hands on the ball, but their inaccuracy in front of goal meant the home team held a 7 point lead at quarter time. The second quarter bought a more organized effort with Gavin Brown providing great drive off half back, Pat Kean in everything and Michael Curcio and George Rowlands finishing well to convert effort into goals. Old Trinity nabbed a goal right on half time and took a 2 point lead to the sheds.

Gutsy Draw for Under 19 Blue |
|
|
The Under 19 Blue side today (12/5) headed over to the great house of learning to play Monash Blues were they gave their own classic lesson in guts and determination. With a starting line up of only 18 players against Monash Blues who had 24, it seemed the odds were stacked against them from the start. With the aid of the westerly breeze, the Tigers opened brightly and by quarter time were up by 25 points in a great team display. However, by midway through the second quarter, we had Callum Byrnes off with an injured knee and Jake Townley concussed in a heavy knock.
The boys were now down to 16 players with Monash Blues in front at half time by 2 points. By the start of the second half, the number able to take the field dropped to 15 players as David Goodchild could not continue with his already damage back. The beeze died and midway through the third quarter, Taylor Gogerly came off with an eye injury and blurred vision. Player count was now SBMT 14 Monash Blues 24 and the meager lead did not seem enough. Stand in coach Tony Bova once again encouraged his charges to continue with the extraordinary level of effort and commit - and they did not let him down. While the Monash boys sprayed a few in front of goal, the Tigers boys took their chances. The endeavour, unity and self belief in our boys to fight it out until the end to achieve a drawn game at 63 a piece was something to witness and really appreciate. A fantastic gutsy effort by all the boys who really did stand tall. Well done boys. You should all be very proud!!

La Sallian Cup moves to Malvern |
|
|
St Bedes/Mentone Tigers were well beaten by 64 points by De La Salle in boggy conditions at East Malvern on Saturday. After an even start, De La were first to thread the big sticks and with some hard running and ball movement eventually had another but the Tigers, kicking downhill, managed to reply to cut the margin, however, a quick reply from the home team extended their lead to 16 points at quarter time. In the second, St Bedes took control for the first 10 minutes but in the worst ground conditions seen in many years could not manage to trouble the scorers whereas the locals showed their mastery of their home by avoiding the bog in most sections of the ground to move the ball forward with excellent skills to negate the Tigers' ball ascendency and hurt them on the scoreboard with consecutive goals - again the Tigers replied but nonetheless the Blue team took a comfortable 31 point margin into the long break

Fluctuating Fortunes |
|
|
St Bedes/Mentone Tigers went down to Old Scotch by 22 points in an extraordinary game of extreme fluctuations in their VAFA Premier Division match at Camberwell on Saturday. The first term started badly for the Tigers and only got worse as Old Scotch ran hard, spread and distributed the ball at will and in so-doing quickly kicked out to a 3 goal margin. The Tigers steadied for several minutes only to see the Cardinals re-initiate the onslaught to register 6 goals 2 before the Tiges troubled the scorer with a rushed behind. As the term wore on the team from Mentone regained some composure and created some contested ball...
