THE COACH
(Peter Simmons)
"If
you look at last year's effort, a lot of games the Glenelg Football Club
lost were in the third quarter. Part of our program is that we go hard
for a couple of hours and we've structured a reasonable-sized break in
the middle of our training sessions. "

COMMENTS
The
Peter Simmons era is off to a winning start with a come from behind 11
point victory against West Adelaide. It was Genelg's first victory
against the Bloods since 1999.
In
the first half the Tigers were loose in their checking which allowed the
Bloods to keep a reasonable distance between the teams. However,
Glenelg's superior fitness, concentration and determination eventually
won the day.
Inspired
by their focal supporters the Bays slammed on 8 goals to 3 in the second
half to record an impressive first up win.
New
recruits, Daniel Kirk, Jeff Smith, Troy Butcher, David Mitchell and Aaron
Rogers demonstrated that they have the potential to be handy acquisitions.
With Brett Doswell and Lucas Herbert waiting in the wings the Tigers may
finally have the depth that has been sadly missing.
The
Tigers face a tougher challenge in round 2 when they face last year finalists,
the Eagles.
