Hopefully, these kids will work their way through to the senior ranks, because they obviously enjoy playing their footy and they do it with a lot of skill.

Connor Didkock kicks on the run in the thirds.
In the thirds, it was Jerilderie with a depleted side while Deni was very close to full strength.
Jerilderie had to fill its side with a lot of under 14s players.
Rovers coach Chris Maher gave strict instructions to his side to look after the smaller boys and to play in the spirit of the game.
And that’s exactly what they did.
We are very proud of the boys and how they went about it.
We are also proud of Jerilderie for still giving it a go and putting up a good fight.
Final score: Rovers 36.24 (240) def Jerilderie 0.1 (1).
