Round 9, Whitford V’s Kalamunda at MacDonald Reserve
The last time these sides met was for Curtis Jack’s 250th game at Ray Owen Oval in Round 16, 29 July 2023 . Unfortunately, it was a disappointment for ‘Jacko’ as an undermanned Cougars side lost by 62 points and Whitford went on to play in the Grand Final being promoted to ‘A’ grade the following season. 2025 was not a successful season for them and they were relegated and now sit at the top of the PFL ‘B’ grade ladder undefeated!
They still remain undefeated, because they easily defeated a once again undermanned Cougars side by 50 points. Not a lot can be said about this game other than the Warriors were too experienced for our young Cougars with their complete concentration, run and overlap throughout the four quarters.
The Cougars were put under pressure from the start resulting in skill errors and when they managed to put passages of team football together broke down on entering the forward line where the Warriors cleared with ease and commenced a new attack.
Again, in this game the Cougars failed to ‘man-up’ once the ball was in their forward area allowing the Warriors to run down the field, out of defence with a chain of hand and accurate foot passing to put our backline under pressure.
This encounter was an example of the speed and skill required to play at the top of the B grade ladder. The Cougars have some work to do!
Final scores: Whitford 16.8 – 104, Kalamunda 8.6 – 50
Best Players: Pending
Goals: Tyler Mouritz 3, Dustin Brown 2, one each to Jarrad Young, Oscar Scoble and Ashton McGowan
