Tigers tackle Hawks



The unbelievable weather continued as Woori Yallock travelled to take on Monbulk.

The previous night, the Under 18s got the weekend off to a winning start with a solid victory over Upwey-Tecoma, the boys are really stringing some good footy together.

Final scores Upwey-Tecoma 3.9, 27 to Woori Yallock 9.9, 63. Top Tigers were Angus MacDonald, Jack Freedman, Mason O’Neill, Tyler Ormsby, Harvey Smith and Remmi Jakimowicz.

The Senior Women played a fantastic game while under pressure due to a few availabilities. In a very even game, Monbulk was able to pull away to record a good victory for the home team.

Final scores Monbulk 4.2, 26 to 1.8, 14. Top Tigers were Sky Wilson, Sienna Mills, Emelia Robin, Jess Laidlaw, Michelle Brown and Abbie Pou.

The Ressies continued their good form, going down to a strong Monbulk by a few goals. The coaches are rapt with the improvement knowing the scoreboard will start showing the improvement.

Final scores Monbulk 9.11, 65 to Woori Yallock 3.6, 24. Top Tigers were Jake Dare, Hamish Gemmill, Ryley Dare, Tom Kear, Caleb Lee and Sam Carlton.

Netball was a mixed bag of results against a strong netball program.

Under 15: Monbulk 27 defeated Woori Yallock 15. Top Tigers were Ayla Spencer, Mia Lingwood and Miami Rowland.

In the Seniors it was a tough contested game, it felt like the accuracy of the Tigers was the real difference in the end.

Monbulk hasn’t been a happy hunting ground over the years so the club was glad to leave with a strong 8 goal win and 4 premiership points to continue its unbeaten run.

With a very even contribution across the field, it was four-quarter performances from Jordan Williams and Zak Monkhorst that stood out.

Final scores Monbulk 7.14, 56 to Woori Yallock 16.9, 105. Top Tigers were Williams, Monkhorst, Alex Marsh, Jacob Aitchison, Jake Calvert, Kane Thompson and Jack Collette.

This week, Woori Yallock hosts Gembrook-Cockatoo for the Hubert Tschampion Trophy. The Brookers have had a solid start to the year and always turn up to Woori with a hunger for the contest so the club welcomes all our supporters to come down and cheer all the teams on.
