SeniorsThe Wellers would end the season on a high with a 129 point victory in front of a huge home crowd.
The boys would start with some scintillating end to end football resulting in a 6 goal first quarter. Our work rate was up and Ormond would succumb time and time again to a our relentless pressure. Robbie and Declan would set a high standard in the middle allowing Hart and Allen to win plenty of ball and supplying our dangerous forwards Kanz, Adamson, Eade and Clarkewho were starting to dominate up front.
The second would also see the home side outscore their opposition while kicking into a strong breeze. Our backs would dominate with Bennett (playing his 150th) and the impressive Wilson were impossible to penetrate and they would receive great support from the ever reliable Deev and Proska.
Our third quarter would be our finest for the year with the boys kicking 10 goals in a dominant display. It was party time and everyone wanted to join in. We would have 12 goal kickers for the day and run away with our best 4 quarter effort for many years.
Our young Cubs would dominate all over the ground led by the talented Verbi on his wing, Fraser in the middle, Sam Powelldown back and Matt Vogel forward would all have stand out games.
It was great to see the team stand up under pressure and secure our place in premier C for another season. We would win 4 out of the last 5 games and will take a lot of momentum into next year.
Thanks to all staff and supporters who have made it such an enjoyable year.Look forward to seeing you all again next season.

ReservesThe twos were playing a determined Ormond who had to win to play finals. We played a sensational first quarter against a four goal breeze and were 3 goals up, having dominated clearances and giving our forwards space to move.
The second quarter was full of fumbles and mistakes and we allowed the opposition to draw level at half time.
Most of the third quarter we managed to hold the opposition, except for a quick burst of 3 goals and at the break we were 30 points down.
Setting ourselves a goal every 5 minutes with the breeze we could win the game and after scoring the first 3 we were a chance, but unfortunately Ormond proved too strong.
Better players on the day were Corso, Bromell, Kanz, Mann and others at various stages.
My thanks for the guys for their efforts in the later part of the year and for their support.
Great team spirit and pleasing to see the improvement in many players on an individual level.
