League: Tasmanian State League Year: 2021 - Round 6 Date: 08 May 2021 Ground: North Hobart Oval Glenorchy 7.8.50 defeated North Hobart 6.9.45
Game Notes:
The development team moved to 3-2 with a gutsy five-point win over North Hobart, who sat one spot ahead on the ladder.
With the injury bug biting hard, a number of U18s and U16s played and helped the Pies to an early lead as the returning Tim Spotswood made his presence felt in the forward line.
However, every time the visitors look set to pull away the Demons responded, and they finally took the lead with four minutes to play in the fourth term.
Enter Zac Evans-Fenton, whose brilliant 45-metre snap put the Pies back in front, and from there the desperate youngsters held firm to secure a memorable win.
Isaac Manson continued his outstanding early form, while Jude Saavedra showed his quality start to the year has been no fluke.
Dylan Browning, Jaythan Poulson and Spotswood were strong throughout, while Evans-Fenton's ruckwork and aerial contest around the ground was pivotal in the result. |
