It was billed as a huge day of footy and it lived up to every bit of it.... a large crowd, past players function, jumping castle, radio station and of course the Noosa and Maroochydore outfits going head to head once more.
The day started well for Maroochydore Colts, dominating an undermanned Noosa and had piled on 36 unanswered goals by the time they had stopped scoring. While the reserves did it a bit tougher but still run out victors in a come from behind win thanks to six goals from midfielder Hayden Smoothy.
But it was the 2pm clash that most had come to watch.
The first quarter was an arm wrestle with both sides piling on the pressure to restrict the scoring to just a goal each and go into the first break on level pegging on the scoreboard. Unfortunately, Maroochydpore centre half forward Nick Lancaster (hamstring) and small defender Dave Hulsman (calf) both went down injured in the first quarter and would not return for the match.
The Roos, however began to assert some dominance in the second quarter but could only open up an 8 point buffer by half time.
The third quarter started well for Maroochydore with a couple of early goals saw them open up a handy lead before Noosa again come back with a couple of steadiers.
Full back Greg Stirton went down with conussion late in the third term and had to be stretchered off while on-baller Josh Norman was yellow carded which meant he could not return to the field for 15 minutes (which equated to 10 minutes into the final quarter). Coupled with the two earlier injuries it meant the coaching staff had zero repalcements on the bench and still only one once Norman was allowed to return to the field.
The Roos went into the final break with a three point buffer but it was quickly erased by Noosa who were beginning to get on top. The Roos battled hard and were not without their chances but ultimatley went down after kicking 2.3 to Noosa's 4.2 in the final quarter.
The team will regroup before taking on ladder leaders Mayne this weekend.
The third grade side ran out comfortable winners under lights against Bribie in the final clash of the day.
A big thanks to Lyndsay Halson and the Past Players Association with a great turnup and fantastic support of the bar (which had to be restocked a few times).
