We had our very own Geoff Shreeves sideline reporter in Jamie Hatch this week.
Ten in, both sides had a couple of half-chances. We are definitely looking like the better team so far.
A break down the right by harry finds Jarrod open at far post but it’s put wide
The first corner of the game is a good ball in from Harry that Jacob connects with on the header. Unfortunately is cleared off the line by a defending header.
They get a decent break away off a through ball. Ryan clears it out with an impressive slide a few meters outside the box.
Big break away by the opposition with the numerical advantage but Ryan handles a poor cross with ease.
A ball far to Charles is eventually chased down and after a few passes makes it way wide to Jarrod at the far post. A move inside is finished with the left that just sneaks in the corner
1-0
Bunting wins a 50/50 that he then fed through to Chris with a good angled run. Passed wide to Jarrod and a strong cross through the middle isn’t touched by either team
They get yet another fast break from halfway. Angus slides well and clears it to the line.
Another shot on target by Chris. Surely one’s going to find the net soon
Evan subs in and has an immediate impact finding Tavis on the far right. The cross in is headered wide by the defence to harry who sends one in. The ball ends at Jacobs’s feet and he spanks it home
2-0
Another goal by the old man.
A lofted shot from well out is bundled by the keeper into the net. Was an easy save to make but still counts the same on the score sheet.
3-0
“Nill all intensity lads” classic shout from Charles while standing around waiting for a throw-in
The second half has kicked off. Some saying it’s a four goal wind so all to play for
An early chance after a through ball by Evan at halfway. Harry is chased down and nothing eventuates.
A couple of early shots on target. Evan hits one low but is cleared off by the defender on the post
Some great passing down the right side ends with a Jacob cross-in. Cleared by the keeper
Back-to-back shots by Knyaw. Trying the Frother’s defence with some slick moves
Back-to-back crosses in from the Frothers but no one can get a good touch to them
A slow shot from harry nearly makes it through the keeper’s legs. He’s looking shotty out here today, think Charles’ goal really rocked his confidence.
Another fast break from Jarrod, he’s dicing them. Can’t connect with Harry in the mix though unfortunately
Some great play by the Frothers. A one-two overlap by Charles and Evan leads to an easy cross into Jarrod at far post. After the touch, it’s fired into the defender
Jarrod goes down just outside the box. Charles looks to the sideline with a wink wanting the free-kick for himself. Evan steps up though and smashes it wide
A rare recent shot from the opposition but nothing comes of it
Frothers pulling on the pressure at the moment. A great ball in from Tavis and Jarrod misses it entirely
Jarrod was taken down in the box. Not a dirty tackle but definitely a foul
4-0
Another chance from Jarrod. He’s getting a lot today, but it’s sent into the hockey pitch
More shots from the Frothers. Stat sheet going to be stacked this game. Bunting with the one-on-one but it’s kicked straight at the keeper
Quick redemption though as he scores. I was too busy retrieving the ball so didn’t see it. Frothers
5-0
Jarrods everywhere. Very similar 50/50, headered over the keeper at the 18-yard. Side by side sprint against a defender who does a shit attempt at a clearance. So bad it’s good though as Jarrod can’t control it and it’s out for a goal kick
Jarrod chips the keeper for a hatty but it’s called offside. The refs missed a defender who was holding his dick on the 6-yard box. Realises the error and gives a drop ball. Not going to help Jarrod sleep tonight
Chris glances a header just over the crossbar wrapping up a dominant frother spell.
The man who will still be haunting the dreams of the KNyaw defenders. Jarrod was relentless and displayed a great combo of pace and power to bully the opposition and bag himself two goals.
Honourable mention to the man in the field, Jamie Hatch
Slightly stitched up by Jamie, Charles gets the nod today for the only piece of footage showing crap footy. You could see he fancied putting it on the keeper again, and why not.
Evan brings up his 100th cap for the Frothers with today’s game. Truly impressive considering he wasn’t in the team the first season
