Dojo Vs Heroes

On a pleasant enough night the second round of the BPL season saw a DojoMojo field a TEAM! Heroes was represented by almost the full roster which was very good to see. We welcomed Adam and Juan for their first games of the season (two rather nice finds over the break). Heroes took the line on O and was immediately faced with a zone. The first point was a 5 possession monster with both teams having chances to score. We showed true patience with the disc and eventually scored with a nice swing, pop, floaty up the line score from Gav to Bev. 1-0. Dojo took the disc on O and scored fairly quickly 1-1. If my memory serves correct Dojo broke to go 2-1, then we score 2-2.
The middle part of this game was very close but stupid errors from each side kept the other in it (if that makes sense). SteveC dropped I dunno how many grabs... esp. in the endzone. The shining light for Heroes was Bevan. Memorable moments was a great 50-50 contest in the endzone, the Disc got bunted up and it was floating away, but then Bev gathers himself and lays out to score a great bid. Bev definitely got the max 3 mvp points for the game.
I don't know what else to say about the match. We played a lot better than we did last week against UQ, but we are still making terrible errors in our own half which was disappointing. This second season appears to be a building season for us, if last was a 'experience taster'. This season is the time for us to build on the last and get ourselves up to the true BPL standard. I think we can play there for about 60-70% of the game at the moment. Our challenge is to take that to the full 100% and start to pull some wins out. Anyways that’s getting into the philosophy of our game so back to the point - the final score of this game was 8-15 to Dojo.
