GEMBROOK-Cockatoo Junior Football Club’s under-16 team lost the chance for second spot when it went down by 92 points against Olinda-Ferny Creek at the weekend.
The Brookers started slowly and due to lack of manning up, the opposition scored goals.
Gembrook fought back in the second quarter to earn some accountability, but after half-time lapsed again.

@BT Sub Sport Gaz:UNDER 10
Lucky for the 10’s game, the fog cleared just in time for the start of the game. Again we allowed the opposition to get off to a good start and consequently, played ‘catch-up’ footy.
To the boys’ credit, they pushed hard all game and gave themselves every opportunity to take the points. It was a tough game, both sides hit the ball hard and there wasn’t much in it at the end.
Best: Owen Strathdee, Jakob Kostovski, Connor Moore, Dylan Asling, Thomas Berrill, Joel Jensen.
