Good to catch up with 3rd generation Downs boy Stop Or I'll Shoot....he seemed to have some excellent shots on the day and is doing a brilliant job documenting the Downs 50th year.
Always feels at home at Argana with so many friends, family and so many great memories.
(Was waiting for Stop Or I Will Shoot's pictures from the game...in the Club rooms on the screen they they looked better than mine.
)Just a quick question....how many pairs of brothers do the Downs have playing at the Senior Club.....there's the Parisi boys, the Andrews boys, the Brennan boys, the Lindsay boys, the Steeds boys ???

Jason Trimboli celebrates Andrew Lindsay's excellent 25 metre curling strike to give the Downs a 2-1 lead.
The Downs in-hospitality marquee celebrate with Downs players...
And it also rained a bit !
.... 
Jason Trimboli nearly made it three goals but the ball was judged to have gone out of play
A hard earned 3 points for the Downs makes it 7 from seven... whilst another opportunity fired a little to high.

Phil Hallard in the Downs goal had a relatively quiet day but the Downs goal was in safe hands ! Oh, and it rained a bit too !
