Parkside Football Club 1897/2017

“By defeating Kingsville in the A Grade preliminary FDFL final last Saturday, Parkside earned the right
to meet F and Y Socials in the grand final this weekend.

Up to the third quarter Kingsville look like winning easily, as they were faster to the ball and more
determined.

However, with five minutes to go before the end of the third term, Parkside rallied, and they were a
goal up at the final change.

Then came their four-goal burst which sealed Kingsville’s fate and put them out.

Although Parkside won they will need to improve in several positions if they are to win pennant.

Socials are favourites for the grand final mainly owing to their all-around ability to match Parkside in
every department.”
