36s up 52 - 35 at 1/2 time. Could they.

John Casey talking to injured 36ser Jarrel Martin. A monster of a man. Can he play AFL.

First win but you can see why both these teams are at the foot of the ladder.

No, Sobey is still there. Like him when he was at the 6s.

36's get a second win by 2 points against Illawarra.

 

[Eagleboy2011]

I'd like to see that.

Penrith win their fourth premiership in a row (playing their fifth GF in a row), incredible record. My in-laws are originally from Penrith so they're pretty pumped, haha.

Rough day today, we all know that golf can do that to you…

Congrats to new State Champion who had an incredible couple days…

Alex gets a top 10 finish after State runner up last year…one more crack at it next year

Have enjoyed following the updates

How does he cope with a bad shot or two? Some people can put it behind them, others carry it around with them. I found that I would just get increasingly frustrated, take poor options after that, try to hit the ball too hard haha. And generally implode

If my buggy tipped over on the first hole it was all over

On the car ride home will you tell him everything he did wrong?

It is definitely something he works on but still struggles with at times. Yesterday was more about thinking he needed to go -6 (turns out he would have had to). That mindset in golf is a really tough one—because the game is hard enough as is.

So on a course that absolutely will punish you for mistakes—can easily lead to his +8, 80 round.

No, I never would do that. Nobody is harder on him than himself.

Honestly, how can you not be proud of him? 3x State qualifier. Runner up as Sophomore, top 10 as Junior. District Champion as Junior. All State as Sophomore and remains to be seen what he will end up as a Junior.

Amazing high school career and another year to go.

Most importantly gets excellent grades.

That finish hurt but they werent bad pitches, they just went full clutch. Thats what the playoffs are all about. Hoping the Yankees rebound though.

There is nothing like the sound of a homer as it hits the bat

Just flicking the channels on Fox and there is a Australia New Zealand netball match. MENS netball.

I would say this is one sport the women's team would kill the men's team. The men are slick but lack the women's skills.
