Power in the five
A NARROW win over Panmure last weekend sees Kolora Noorat sitting in the top five of Warrnambool District League.
With three wins on the board, Power currently sits fifth, a game clear of Dennington, leading into this weekend’s fifth round.
Travelling to Panmure last weekend, the Power found themselves down by eight points after the opening term.
They regrouped for the second and added five majors to the scoreboard while containing the home side to just two, which resulted in a 10-point lead at the main break.
With both sides applying strong pressure all over the ground, and tussling to make in-rounds on the scoreboard, the lead changed again by three-quarter time, with Panmure ahead by four points heading into the final term.
A last quarter burst by the Power saw them add six goals to their tally while containing the home side to four majors.
