Southside 8, Grafton 3.

Hard to believe that we went into the break 2-3 down. At half time everyone agreed that we needed to work harder and keep things simple but we were all confident that we would win. Our confidence was not misplaced. Within 20 mins of the restart Grafton were out for the count , 6-3 down , before briefly rallying. A fantastic point blank double save from Geoff  snuffed out the Grafton fight-back  and the Mighty Reds cruised  to their biggest ever victory. Excellent debuts from Billy and Alex P, a good shift up front from  Bilal and a dominant performance in Midfield from Big Paul were highlights of an exciting evening - Goal of the night went to Malek  with a beautiful second half strike  but  surely man of the match was the irrepressible Scott  whose four goals were no more than he deserved. Scott went home with the match ball - fair enough, it is his ball!  All great stuff  but we'll need to  improve our defending as a team and become more compact if we want to win against Effra next Thursday. Well done everyone, see you tomorrow.

Team. Geoff, Dan K,Chet, Billy, Alex Howard, Luis S, Alex P,Malek,Tariq, Big Paul, Perre, Bilal, Scott.
