DEMONS WIN THEN DRAW AGAINST COUGARS

Moonta and the Cougars played out a draw in slightly controversial circumstances at Maitland last Saturday. When the final siren went it appeared that Demons had got home by a point in a high quality affair, but after consultation between the match officials it was found that one of the goal umpires had not marked down a behind to the Cougars and hence a draw was recorded. For the Cougars, Ben Gunning was best and for Moonta, ruckman Damien Adams continued his superb early season form, being named best.

The Crows travelled to Kadina on top of the ladder and are still there, thanks to a 19 point victory over the Bloodhounds. Accurate kicking for goal saw them in front at half time by 19 points at the main break and despite a surge in the third term from the homeside, the Crows got across the line for their fifth win of the season. Adam Jolly and Ben Millar were best for the Crows while for Kadina, Cam Faulkner was a clear best with five goals, with Cam March and Loren Franz also the best.

At Warooka, the Southern Eagles made easy work of Ardrossan, winning by 113 points. Luke Liddiard along with Mark and Luke Abell were, the homeside having 11 different goalkickers. For the Roos, who have now lost their last four games, Luke Wood and Daniel Kunhdt were their best.

Bute made it three on the trot with 23 point win at home again Paskeville. The ran riot in the opening term adding 6.9 to 1.1, before the Magpies fought back in the second term to get the margin back to 12 points at the long break. The flow of scoring eased slightly in the second half, with the Roosters doing enough to get home, the win putting them into the top five. Bute’s best were Justin Hoare and Shane Slade while for Paskeville, Travis Crowell kicked five goals with Matthew Rodda and Paul Herde in the best.

ARTHURTON LEGEND - GEORGE TUCKER DIES AGED 86

Former Arthurton Football Club Legend George Tucker passed away on April 22, 2009. George was an outstanding footballer for Arthurton in the 1950’s & 60’s captaining the club and was part of the 1955 Premiership win over Point Pearce, the clubs first flag since 1934. If Arthurton ever picks an All-time best team of the club, Tucker would certainly get a start either as an on-baller or a small forward. His efforts for Arthurton with Jack Olive during that have always been highly regarded.

BUTE KNOCKS OFF THE CROWS, MOONTA BEAT LAST YEARS PREMIERS

Bute finally scored its first win of the season with a 3 point victory over the CMS Crows at Curramulka. In tough conditions the Roosters showed tenacity to grab the Premiership Points, a loss would have had them 0/3 and in real strife. They were looking down the barrel early as the Crows did well (without Troy Clements) with the wind kicking 4.6 to nil in the first term. Bute they rallied in the second to add 5.7 to nil to lead by 7 points at the main break. Again the Crows held Bute scoreless, 4.6 to nil in the third, before Bute ran home strongly adding 4.5 to 0.3 to gain their first win. All goals in the match were scored from the one end of the ground.

The Roosters can thank Chris Langford and Shane Slade who played well, as did Michael Polkinghorne who kicked two vital goals in the last term. While the homeside, Michael Cook and Adam Jolly played well in a losing cause.

Moonta maintained its unbeaten form with a 47 point win over the Southern Eagles at Yorketown. In a tight first three quarters, the Demons pulled away in the last term adding 6.3 to 1.1 to run away with the victory. Nick Blight and Zeb Drogemuller played well while up forward Adam Forth kicked four goals on a day that hardly suited forwards.

Kadina burst Wallaroo’s bubble with a 25 point away win in Bulldog territory. They should have led by more at quarter time and indeed half time, with a indifferent 4.11 on the board. Their defence was rock solid only conceding one goal to three quarter time with Cam Faulkner and Mark Obushak playing well. For the Dogs, Brenton Meier and Michael Taylor tried hard, some pride salvaged with them winning the final term.

Paskeville recorded its first win of the season, at home to Ardrossan by 30 points. The win was set up in the first term as they added 4.5 to 0.2. The Roos fought hard in the second term to beg back the  advantage but it wasn’t enough. Stuart Daniel and Jake Herde were best for the Maggies while George Rowntree and Scott Teakle were best for Ardrossan.

This week, Moonta heads to Ardrossan to maintain its unbeaten record, Wallaroo heads south to play the Crows at Stansbury, the Cougars come off the bye with a visit from Pasky and Kadina and the Southern Eagles meet at Kadina.

KADINA DEFEATS ARDROSSAN IN A HEART STOPPER

In ideal conditions, Ardrossan travelled to Kadina in search of back to back wins after its fine effort to defeat Bute last week.

Kadina dominated in the third term but couldn’t convert add 5.5 to 3.0 but had pegged the margin back to 5 points at the last change.

The Magpies threw everything at them in the third term adding 5.1 to 2.3, but the ‘Dogs steadied in the last term to record a comfortable win. Ben Abela and Jason Bone were best for the victors, while for Pasly, Travis Crowell kicked three, with Martin and Stuart Daniel in their best.
