KATS news
THERE was a marked improvement for both the league and reserve teams in last week's matches against Railways.
In the league game Railways led at the first break but the KATS came back in the second quarter to lead 5-9 to 5-1.
Railways got away again in the next quarter leading 8-7 allowing the KATS to score only three points.
All the suspense was to come in the dying seconds of the game when Railways lead 10-10 to the KATS 10-7 and Ray Griffiths was to kick for a goal after the siren sounded.
Griffiths kicked truly to give the KATS a well earned three-point win.
The best of the goal kickers were Kede Phillips (five) and Drew Kent (three) but it was Griffiths' single goal that won the game. Best players were Mitch Innes, Matt Whitebread, Ray Griffiths and Joel Innes.
The young reserve boys acquitted themselves well playing their best game for the season, matching it with Railways to the final break when they trailed 5-2 to the visitors 5-4 and at the final siren they went down 7-4 to 8-4.
Cam Leurs was the best of the goal scorers with two, while best players were Jeremy Dyer, Cam Leurs, Joe Wilson, Jason Stevens and Tom Tiller.
