The tale continues for Subiaco finishing the season in first place to claim the minor premiership in a nailbiting last quarter against Peel. Subi won the final game of the season 14.9 (93) to 13.11 (89) only a 4-point game in which they were leading by as much as 52 points during the third term.

Subi kicked themselves to a 51-point advantage at half time having six more looks at goal than the Thunder. After Subi reached their biggest lead in the third Peel started to respond bringing the margin back down to 23 at the break.

Peel had only their pride to play for but stormed home as if their season was on the line as just three points were separating the teams. Wasn’t until Kitchin’s settler despite a few late ones from Peel that determined a tight but exciting game of footy.

Greg Clark made his welcomed return from a Hamstring injury few weeks back and didn’t miss beat looking as if he hadn’t missed any game time. The star midfielder had 27 possessions, 5 tackles, 8 inside-50s and 2 goals to round out a stellar season for him. 

Wil Hickmott was right on his toes having equal number of disposals and marks while having a goal of his own and so to his brother joining in with 20 touches and topped of the teams tackle count with 12. Angus Dewar was handy down back having 18 touches of his own just as Drew Rhode brought the pressure with 7 tackles too.

There were five double-scorers on Saturday’s encounter; Kitchin, Clark and the Matera brothers all kicked two goals each. Ben Sokol was the fifth to have two to his name for the game and has now finished season 2021 having kicked 41.24 which leaves him fourth in the Bernie Naylor medal and a season to be proud of.

However, the show isn’t quite over just yet. Subiaco will play their first final in two weeks time being a home 2ns semi-final played at Leederville Oval.

RESERVES

It was a thumping win to Subi over the weekend as they tore apart the Thunder leaving them 133-point victors in a 23 goals to 2 game.

After being held scoreless for the first quarter, things just seemed to get worse for the home team as Subi helped themselves to a 12 goal half and held the momentum to keep the goals flowing after the main break.

Peel’s two behinds was their addition to their half time score including another scoreless quarter in the third, while a further 11 goals from 16 scoring shots was Subi’s contribution for the remainder of the game. 

Subi’s monstrous win boosted their percentage by 14% and finished 4th on the ladder just 1% behind Perth in third.

Connor Patterson was a standout with 10 tackles and 5 inside-50s to go with his 19 touches plus a handy goal. Also very much impressive on the day was Corey Robinson who had 26 and 10 inside-50s and Noah Ash with 19 and two goals. 

In such a high scoring affair, over half the team got themselves on the scoreboard with one or more goals. Double goal kickers were Holt, Ash and Borchet but two wasn’t enough for Faraone and Jack Mayo who both booted 4 goals to their name.

Subi’s Ressies are also heading into the finals this year but instead of a week off will be straight into it this weekend at Provident Financial Oval in a do or die clash with West Perth.

COLTS

Subiaco came close but fell short in the final stages of their last game of the year against Peel on Saturday. Peel took away the four points winning 10.10 (70) to 8.7 (55) despite Subi holding the lead at the final break.

A good game nevertheless as Subi came back after quarter time from a poor start in the first term to be leading by a margin of 17 in a big second quarter.

The Lions managed to hold onto a lead after the third but Peel held all the momentum going in the fourth quarter after having kicked 3.3 to Subi’s 1.2.

A final term surge from the Thunder left Subi to fall short by just over two goals and round out their 2021 season. 

In a bit of a disappointing day, Jacob Evitt got his lot of the ball with a total of 22 touches  Jack Gouge (19) had 7 tackles and Corey Bellouard (20) had 7 marks.

With eight individual single goal kickers, Richard Farmer scored the most with 1.2 while Evitt and Bellouard both had 1.1.

Subi finish their season with 5 wins and 11 losses, a percentage of 68.98% and a seemingly much needed off season coming up.
