Mud ... glorious Mud

Yes, boys will be boys !

Yes, we dusted off our hoofs and the Mustangs went back into the mud this morning - I heard one coach of an 8-year old team tell them all to 'drop and roll' - I kid you not, they all had to lay down in the mud and have a roll BEFORE the game! One kiddie wasn't keen and the coach literally picked him up and laid him down in the mud! Oh dear, is that what we have to look forward to ?!?!?
Boggy underfoot, but otherwise another perfect day for 'footy' without a breath of wind but rather crisp ! And the after-match report ....
For the second week in a row, the Mustangs passed really well, and always looked for the pass. Almost always, there was a Mustang on their tail, and it made for a great game to watch. Three times they caused a turnover by ripping six times, and the opposition didn’t do that once. With the outstanding ripping display, and the great passing, it was one of the most exciting games to watch the Mustangs have played.

Joshua Turnbull played his usual game. Today he focused on defence – the game needed that as the opposition had some pretty fast runners. Anyway, Joshua rose to the challenge and ripped no less than 7 rips today. Awesome Joshua.
Dig it in Josh - and run !
