Under 14 boys

Camberwell 16 def. Altona 15

With last weeks win behind us and a record of close encounters with Altona in the last two years, a tight match was anticipated. Altona fielded a ten-man squad, making the unusual decision not to play a keeper. This worked in our favour for most of the game even though it meant an extra man in defense.

Division 3

Camberwell 30 def Chadstone 11 

Upon arrival to the Chadstone grounds, we found the umpires and coaches huddled around a cement man hole located within 10m of one of the goals. A quick dash to Camberwell for alternate grounds was ruled out but the goal was moved away from danger. However this resulted in skewed grounds, which while not a game decider, did make the life of the defensive line harder.

Divison 3

Camberwell 24 def MCC 9

After a disappointing loss to Williamstown last week, we faced this week our nemesis – MCC. I predicted that this time around we would not see the 24-0 outcome we got in round 1. Turned out I was right … almost.

The game started slowly with both teams playing cautiously and the result was close at the end of the 1st at 4-3 our way. The 2nd quarter is when the flood gates opened and with a 9-3 period, we pretty much put the game away. With a short bench, MCC began to tire and was never a real threat from then on.

Under 12 Boys - Magic

Camberwell Magic 20 def Caulfield Vipers 5

Under 14 Boys

Camberwell 20 def. Knox 3

Knox had yet to post a win so there was an opportunity for us to work on team skills and bring others into play instead of relying on the usual suspects.

With three on the bench the mid-field was changed frequently enabling a fast pace to be maintained. Goals scored by Colin (#19), Gus (#24), Tommy (#17) and four to Lincoln (#7). Combined with a shut out by Ben (#13) in the cage, we ran up seven for the first quarter.

Division 3 Men's

Camberwell 14 def Moreland 10

For the 2nd time is as many rounds we faced Moreland away. The team looked very much like the U16 team with a few senior ringers, mostly in defence. The midfield and attack had only 2 seniors.

Division 2 Men's

Camberwell 22 def Eltham 3

After our first win last week, the Division 2 team ventured to Eltham. The opposition had no bench and we had 4, so it was looking good. We started well, racing to a 6-0 lead in the first quarter.

In the second, Eltham seemed to have figured out our attack plan and while they were not able to catch up, we did not manage to extend the lead by much. At half time, Bruce and Adam decided to go to 2-2-2 formation and this seemed to have opened the flood gates.
