Round 7

Under 16s match played Saturday, May 26, all other matches cancelled due to ground conditions.

UNDER 16s: Clarence 11.6 (72) d New Norfolk 7.10 (52) at Boyer Oval. Goals - NN: Josh Rowlands 3, Daniel Adams 2, Aaron Triffitt, Daniel Coppleman; Best - NN: Brandon King, Daniel Adams, Tyson Gray, Tyron Rainbird, Tyler Purdon, Jacob Daley.

After not losing a game so far this season, the Under 16s went down to a more determined Clarence team on Boyer Oval last Saturday. New Norfolk played well but wasn't quite at its best and missed some set shots for goal that they normally would have kicked. Midfielder Brandon King had a very good game for the young Eagles, setting up many goal opportunities as did Daniel Adams who continues to impress. Josh Rowlands showed he knows were the goals are, booting three majors with Adams also chipping in with two goals. Aidan Pearton took a terrific mark down back which got a good reception from the crowd. In the end Clarence ran out winners by 20 points. With the return of a couple key players the Under 16s will be looking to regain top spot on when they meet ladder leaders North Hobart at Tynwald Park at 1pm on Sunday. Good Luck boys.
