HAMILTON KANGAROOS were shown exactly the level the side has to reach if it wants to feature in the finals of the Hampden Football Netball League, when the side was belted by South Warrnambool at Reid Oval, 24.20 (164) – 4.4 (28).

Playing on the Reid Oval allows teams to play the fast open style of football that has become prevalent in the modern game, and the Roosters were able to gain the upper hand from the opening term as the home side had 16 shots on goal to only one from the Roos.
