This Sunday will be the first time that Forbes have opened the season with an Anzac round against Parkes. Magpies Coach Cameron Greenhalgh said, “Training has been really good happy with our fitness levels and there has been plenty of high energy in our ball sessions.”
“The players are ready to play, pre-season is over I think the whole community is ready to watch some local footy.”
“Obviously our spine 1,6,7,9 will have a big influence on the outcome, as well as our forwards it will be tough, I don’t expect us to play our best footy for a while but we hoping for a solid start to the year.”
Forbes and Parkes are wearing special Anzac Day guernsey’s on Sunday. The Forbes guernsey’s will be auctioned off at the Forbes Inn after the game and the Parkes auction will take place at The Coachman Hotel. All grades will be playing with the girls kicking off at 10.30am. Head along and cheer on your local team!
