Australian Rules Football

James career as a high flyer began on 12 April, unfortunately only half the other team made it to the ground. The game went ahead with Springwood reserves playing for the opposition, needless to say the result was a little one sided. The "mercy" rule was applied at half time with the score at 148 to 1. The second half was more of the same but unscored.
The second game on the 19th was against more formidable competition, Jamie played in the defence and won many possessions and managed to combine with his team mates to turn the opposition raids. The final score had Springwood ahead by 9 points, but they had been pushed and were forced to maintain their concentration right to the end. Jamie acquited himself well, and showed more confidence and ability as the game progressed, although he did seem lost on occasion he did find a solution and disposed of the ball positively most of the time.
