Kinglake’s away day at Yea didn’t start well with two players injured early in the first quarter. Yea quickly took advantage kicking five goals to one in the first quarter. Kinglake 1.1 (7) Yea 5.4 (34).
Lakers’ coach Nathan Booker addressing players at the first break
“We’re doing … and I’m saying the same thing every single week … we play reactive footy.
“We wait until the balls in our hands before we even start moving … once we’ve got the pill in our hands [and] forwards should already be moving.
“The [Yea Recreation Reserve] ground is massive so we’ve really got to close down space … as soon as the ball turns over it’s man on man footy, isn’t it boys? We’ve really got to be on our game today.
“It’s one of those days boys where we’ve got to go to work and do the little things,” Booker said.
The second quarter was a similar story as Yea kicked four goals to Kinglake’s one, giving Yea a 44 point lead at the main break. Kinglake 2.3 (15) Yea 9.5 (59).
Kinglake made changes after half time which worked well helping Kinglake put in a last-half competitive effort kicking seven goals to Yea’s nine in the third quarter. Kinglake 6.4 (40) Yea 12.8 (80).
Kinglake – both the seniors and reserves – need to be more consistent over four quarters of football.
