The Frothers had an immediate shot at redemption, facing a LBQ team that soundly beat them last week.

The Frothers love a cup and were going for a 4th straight finals appearance this season.

First Half

The Frothers immediately set-up in a lot more solidly than last week and were able to easily quash any LBQ attacks. Doube did manage to pick himself up a classy yellow got a good old fashioned ball-or-man chop.

LBQ were packing the midfield again so the Frothers had to resort to other tactics to get opportunities. A clearance come through-ball from Chris found Jarrod on the edge of the box. Jarrod was able to beat his man to it and cut inside and finish at the near post, on his 50th appearance no less.

1-0

Not long after the boys tried around rather than over. Aaron saw Yash breaking free and sent an early through-ball that Yash decided to hit first time with the toe to completely bamboozle the keeper.

2-0

Halftime

LBQ decided to go with a different tactic in the second half now that they had the wind, bombing everyone up the middle.

This paid dividends after 20 minutes as a ball bobbled through into the box and through the use of a well timed headlock the LBQ striker was able to get on the end of it.

2-1

This goal was just what LBQ needed to start the bullshit train. A miss-hit potshot somehow floated into the top corner to level things up.

2-2

Adding a bit on injury to insult LBQ were able to press-on and grab the lead by following through on a challenge on Ryan to allow the ball to fall to an LBQ player with an open net.

2-3

Pushing everyone up the Frothers were it on the break to settle things

2-4

Man of the Match

Ian had a huge game down the right on both attack and defence. LBQ needed to resort to the dark arts to finally get by him.

Dick of the Day

Everyone who fluffed a back-heel, which was everybody who tried one. Special mention goes to Evan Hanson who gave Yash as dressing down for being wasteful, only to then do the exact same thing 5 mins later.
