COACHES COMMENTS ON THE MATCH |

Whilst we were happy with the win last time out versus Hawks we were disappointed with the performance level. We have worked hard in training to rectify some of the issues and are looking forward to a much-improved performance in what is another crucial match. Whilst they have not picked up as many wins as they would have liked Marr have been very competitive in almost every game. Their cup performance versus the league leaders and their two pros released will give them the belief they can do something at Malleny and we know we have to bring our top levels if we are to get the result in what could be our last home match of the season.
