Deanmill crushtame Imperials

Deanmill disposed of Imperials with an emphatic 64-point win in a round two reschedule at the weekend. This week was meant to be a general bye for the league. But after the COVID-19 scare in April suspended all games across the division, the Lower South West Football League decided it was a perfect opportunity to get the season back on track. The home team held the Imperials goalless in the first term, the visitors restricted to two points at quarter time. Deanmill, on the other hand, had 5.1 to put themselves in good stead for the rest of the match. The second quarter went much the same way with the Imperials struggling to create many chances as Deanmill continued to hold sway in the midfield. The only thing that prevented Imperials from being completely blown away was the lack of clinical finishing by Deanmill who kicked 4.5 in the second quarter to Imperials’ 2.2. The score at half-time had Deanmill leading Imperials by 44 points. The punishment continued for Imperials in the third quarter with Deanmill’s pressure in the midfield and their forward 50 forcing their players into mistakes and turnovers. Deanmill’s David Fall had a field day kicking seven goals on the outing and was among the best on ground for the home team. The third term ended with Deanmill having extended their lead to 57 points. In the final quarter Imperials mounted a spirited effort to reduce the deficit, kicking 5.2. Unfortunately it was too little too late. Deanmill booted 6.3 to put the game out of reach of the visitors.
