DY8 State 3 Samson and Lion 7

Simner managed a consolation late on, their keeper so shocked by an effort on target that he let the ball dribble through his legs. All told, this was another frustrating day at the office for the State. They did manage more shots on goal than usual but were unlucky on several occassions - the post and the keeper denying them more than once. Moreover both Simner and Spittle were victims of professional fouls when in goal scoring situations (OK, they'd have probably missed but that's not the point is it?). It could have been a different story - but unfortunately these match reports are becoming shockingly similar. There are only so many ways to describe miserable failure so, if only for the sake of something different to write about, lets hope that things improve soon.
