Transcript
00:00Hi, next up, a really, really great game of netball, obviously a very powerful Colbo
00:10outfit but commiserations to Mount Pleasant today and I'll ask Anthony McCleary the coach
00:14if she'd like to come forward and say a few words. Thanks, Anthony.
00:16Firstly, just a quick thank you to the nine clubs in our league who I know have volunteers
00:31busting their gut to get teams on the court every year. We're really well supported by
00:36Jan and the board and it's been a really fantastic season. Colbo, take a bow. You're amazing.
00:43What beautiful netballers. You make a beautiful team, you're beautifully coached but most importantly
00:49you're beautiful to play against. You've just, yeah, had an outstanding season. You should
00:55be really proud. I know you will celebrate hard because you've had to be patient with
01:00this one and I guess that's probably a message to my girls as well that, you know, I'm so
01:06proud of you guys and I know that this is just the beginning so be proud because I certainly
01:11am.
01:13Well, congratulations on a great year.
01:15The next award is the Best on Court Award. Community Bank Heathcote and District Natalie
01:26Sheridan-Smith to present a voucher on behalf of Community Banks and also Piggy, welcome
01:32to you. And also the medal to be presented by HFNL Life Member and AFL-CB Regional Council
01:38Representative Claire Lowe and the winner of the Best on Court in the A-Grade Grand Final
01:44from Colborne Avenue.
01:46Goal shooter, Matilda McIntyre.
02:02I'd like to thank the umpires, the game doesn't happen without you, thank you to Mounts, you
02:21guys have been great all year, didn't want to play you today but you were very good and
02:25two Colbo, three years for it, so glad we finally got one.
02:32What up Matilda, don't go too far enough. Okay our premiership medals to be presented again
02:40by Claire, thank you Claire. Let's kick it off with best on court Matilda McIntyre.
02:54Casey Conder, Olivia McIlroy, Grace McIntyre, Elle Palmer, Chelsea Whittle,
03:23Chelsea Whittle, John Palmer, Macy McCague, Co-Captain, Ella Kerlin, and fellow Co-Captain, Tansen Myers.
03:50And of course the coach, we'll get this one right, not the captain, the coach, Jen McIntyre.
04:09Hi everyone, thanks for sticking around to watch the game. Thank you Mounts, we really
04:34enjoy playing against you. You're a beautiful team to play against, clean, well coached,
04:39can test hard. And as Anthea said, I'm sure you're going to be annoying for years and up
04:43there for years and there'll be lots more games to be had between these players and your players.
04:48So congratulations on making the grand final.
04:53Thank you to the umpires. Again, barely noticed you, which is always a good, so thank you for your efforts today.
04:58We appreciate your time and the effort that you put into being the best that you can be, so thanks for that.
05:08Thank you to all of the sponsors that get around the Colbo footy netball club. It's a great club to be a part of.
05:16I feel super privileged to be able to coach this club that kept me when I couldn't win a grand final.
05:22So thank you girls, finally. We got it done.
05:26Thank you, of course, to my bench, Susan and Lisa. It's not easy. I do bar constructions at you, so I appreciate your patience.
05:34And we finally got there. And to this group of girls, obviously we have had a couple of goes at it.
05:39And we've been on a bit of a mission this year to make sure that we could finally get it done.
05:44And premieres and undefeated all year, which is pretty special.
05:48Pretty special. And I think you'll have a bond for the rest of your lives.
05:52And I think some are perhaps hanging up the Colbo dress for a while, but maybe we'll have to see what we can do about that.
05:59But yeah, well done girls. You've been an absolute privilege to coach.
06:03I don't really do much, to be honest. So I growl at them when they lose a quarter, which they only did once this year.
06:09So I was so annoyed that I'm over that now. But thank you, everyone, for getting around it.
06:13We loved the song. Thank you, boys. Hopefully next year we can return the favour and run out on the ground when you win.
06:20Anyway, thank you very much. And have a good night. Be safe.
06:25Thanks, Shane. Congratulations. Don't go too far.
06:28Claire, I know you've got a wonderful history with Colbo, and this will give you absolute pleasure to hand over the Premiership Cup to Jen, to Ella, and also to Tanzan.
06:38Way you go. Go and collect it, ladies and gentlemen. How are you doing? Premiers and champions.
06:43Colman Eben.
06:44We did it!
06:49We did it!
06:50We did it!
