Woori U18 Boys will play grand final and Seniors play to advance to grand final this weekend



Saturday was perfect weather at Healesville that looked in amazing condition for Woori Yallock Seniors, 1v2 in the Seniors and it lived up to finals footy.

With both teams applying forward pressure and historically a low scoring ground, it was going to be a game of moments.

Woori had a great first quarter with over lap fast footy and held a good lead at quarter time.

In the second, Narre took advantage of undisciplined acts from Woori and swung the momentum firmly back in their court, with the game being played at frenetic pace there wasn’t more then a goal separating the teams at half time.

The second half continued with ebbs and flows, both teams having passages of play, in the end Narre just made more of the moments and came away with a 15 point win.

Woori aims to bounce back this week vs Wandin on Sunday at Officer.

On Sunday, the Under 18 Boys won their way to a grand final with a tough win against a equally determined Healesville.

Both teams seem to suck the time while defending the win and in the end Woori got a couple of un answered goals to set it up, the quality of particularly the top three teams in the under 18 comp sure sets up these clubs for the future.

The Unders play Mt Evelyn at Woori on Saturday in what’s sure to be a spectacle.
