New Norfolk kicked off the 2012 season against a strong Clarence outfit at Tynwald Park. From the outset the boys were prepared to attack the ball and tried to stick to their plan of moving the ball quickly. Generally it was simple mistakes which resulted in the ball being turned over but with more match practice their hard work will no doubt pay off. The back line held up well under constant pressure and never gave up. Best players were first gamer P. Vout, D. Smith, C. Triffitt, Connor Salter and goal-scorer Alex Blair.
UNDER 15: New Norfolk 23. 23 (161) d. Sandy Bay 3.0 (18) at Tynwald Park.
Goals - NN: Brayden Chaplin 3, Jacob Picken 3, Nathan Wakefield 3, Brett Hodge 2, Joshua Raspin 2, Charlie Stewart 2, Joshua Whitford-Marriott 2, Hayden Bielleman, Daniel Browning, Tomas Gillies, Hayden Smith, Aaron Thorpe, Kye Tomkinson. Best - NN: Joshua Whitford-Marriott, Ryan Wakefield, Jacob Picken, Brett Hodge, Brayden Chaplin, Nicholas Wakefield.
In a polished performance the Under 15s totally outplayed their Sandy Bay opponents right from the start. The young Eagles had winners all over the ground and it was great to see the players in such good form so early in the season. New Norfolk kept the opposition scoreless for two of the four quarters and had 13 individual goal kickers. Josh Whitford-Marriott put in a classy effort as did newcomer Ryan Wakefield. Brett Hodge made a welcome return to the team, kicking two majors as well as having plenty of the ball. Jacob Picken was just about everywhere as was Brayden Chaplin, while quiet achiever Nick Wakefield scouted the packs well.
UNDER 16: New Norfolk 10.12 (72) d Glenorchy 8.10 (58)
Goals - NN: Jordan Banks-Smith 4, Aaron Triffitt 4, Daniel Coppleman, Brandon King. Best - NN: Tyron Rainbird, Daniel Coppleman, Blaise Reed, Brad Townsend, Aaron Triffitt, Josh Rowlands.
The Under 16s started the season with a good win against Glenorchy. The boys showed great spirit when they came from behind to win by 14 points. All the boys played well and it was a fantastic team effort. They are all looking forward to playing on Boyer Oval this weekend, starting at 9.30am before the SFL reserves match.
