Ouch!

In round 2 of season 2 we played the number 2 team. It was a bit rough really.

The energetic Cobra team went on 2 separate 5 to 1 goal runs during the game, it was too much to handle. From the start of the game to 5 to 1 up we made mistakes at our end and the Cobras capitalised. As our extra players arrived and the team began to readjust to the speed of the BPL in our first game of the season we brought the match right back.

When we had the frisbee to score at 8 to 10 down the game had returned to being a contest however it was not to be and a second 5 to 1 run was too strong for us as the 15 to 9 final score clearly shows.

The Cobra team looked fairly good. They are a team that applies pressure on defense and then take risks on offense with fast and long disc movement. They will continue to be a handful this season.

As for us we know where we are at. Its exactly the same place we found ourselves in during the early stages of last season. We know what we have to do on the field to be successful, however we are still adjusting to the different style of play that is now necessary for us to be competitive.

Encouraging signs this week from two 5th season Bugger work horses with both Manuel and Simon executing blocks and grabs at their athletic peaks. Spectacular fellas, well done. It's also excellent to see that everyone on the team is enthusiastic about evaluating their own performance and setting goals to improve. I'm confident we will quickly return to our potential.

After 2 disrupted first weeks through attendance we are looking forward to another opportunity to grow as a team in this weeks clash with the UQ team.
