So said Billy post-game in response to the refereeing display that prevented the Bears getting away with a lucky draw. To be fair, the Wombats played well and deserved the win, though it remains a mystery how half-time can be called with a clear 2 on 1 raid in progress at the goal. A strong start to the second half with a long range goal from Boony gave the lads a sniff, but the enthusiasm of the Wombats was the difference. Playing without a sub they kept the Bears on the run and held on grimly for only their second win in 2 seasons. In the end a disappointing 3-4 loss has the Bears in danger of dropping down the table from the current 3rd position. Next week, the re-match with Giancarlo and MennerNMen could be decisive.
Whilst outmatched, the Red Bears retained their enthusiasm against the league leading JugglingJuggernauts, with Kylie her energetic self and Jen getting into the thick of the action. As in the previous game, the lads were flat and were out-run and out-skilled by their counterparts. The 2-10 scoreline could have been a lot worse if not for the brilliance of Macer in goal.
Notable mention to Gav who had the presence of mind to drag Doc off the field before the Big Fella completely lost it. An artists impression of what was going through Doc's mind:

Next week, a chance for redemption with the Black Bears at 6:30pm and Red Bears at 7:00pm
