Results as largely expected today except for Burwood with a surprising win. Anyone able to shed some light on their good season so far? Perhaps Le Mur?

Interesting game today, I did not expect us to win with all the missing players we had (3-4 usual players out, good thing all other games were cancelled as we would have struggled for 11 - but I suspect not uncommon with most clubs at the moment). Wanna shout our to Reserves lads who stepped up. I think the result was correct based upon chances and the hard work by the Burwood lads. There are no simple equations to our success, comes down to great work by our coaches, and hard work by our players. And at times we struggle, but as a small club we don't give up - my opinion maybe. The club cry is Up The Wood (UTW) - not chosen by me, but all the lads are into it. As well all our lads (all teams) pay the same subscriptions - I wonder how many clubs can say this :). I'd love to have the $$$ as Ch$rubles$ United, but I'd much rather be in my club - happy not to buy leagues.

Thanks Le Mur. Your boys seem to be overachieving this season. Good to see some more competition in CCL, especially in past seasons whee you guys along with parklands have had less successful campaigns. Although parklands had a slow start still having a decent season (penny for your thoughts benchwarmer?) Good diverse league, despite united this year, league looks more evenly competitive than it has it the past which is encouraging for the league.
