Round 17

North Shore have set up a final round showdown with Sydney University for a place in the 2008 Sydney AFL finals series with a solid 79 point win over the Wollongong Lions at Gore Hill on Saturday. For this round North Shore welcomed the return of several key players, none more prominent than club captain Mark Livy who returned to the side following an extended break from football. It was however once again the form of Bombers youngsters Lachlan Pryor and Brendan Fitzgerald that set up the win for North Shore. For Pryor it was his third consecutive best on ground performance making him the in form on baller of the competition at the moment. For Fitzgerald he once again revelled in the opportunity to play in the middle of the ground gathering plenty of possessions for North Shore. Despite being only 9 points up at half time, it was North Shore’s second half performance that put a smile on the face of the Bomber fans with North Shore kicking 17 goals to set up the win. Ron Wason once again continued his good form up forward and finished with 5 goals. Some of North Shore’s more senior players were also prominent with Nick Egan, Ryan Meldrum and Ben Attwood also in form. The win now puts North Shore in a position to make the finals but they must beat Sydney University next Saturday at Gore Hill to secure their spot.
