Although we are at the half way mark, there is still a great deal of football and netball to look forward to as we still have 9 rounds plus a finals campaign to go. Pleasingly all football sides sit inside the top eight with only our three lower junior netball grades at this point outside the eight but with a chance to still make it to the finals. We also have our three senior grades of netball and under 11.5 football undefeated which a fantastic achievement. Well done to all involved. Unfortunately, we have had a number of long-term injuries especially in regards to our senior football with Nick Coghlan and Zac McLeod out for the season with ruptured achilles. We wish them and all those on the injury list a speedy recovery. The extended break will be good for us overall though with many returning over the coming weeks. Can we take this opportunity to thank all our wonderful sponsors and volunteers who have assisted us greatly in getting our teams out on the oval / courts. We are looking forward to what the rest of 2021 will look like as we prepare for and head into another finals campaign where hopefully we can improve on the three premiership flags we brought back to the kennel in 2019. There will be some obvious challenges over the coming weeks and in to winter as we navigate our way through Covid. Please ensure everyone stays safe and adheres to our Covid Safe Plan and protocols at all times both when at home and when travelling to away games. The club will continue to update any changes to our fixture should there be a need going forward. BULLDOGS BARK
