Subscriber only WITH a strong family connection to the military, Jordan Godfrey appreciated how the Ipswich Eagles continue to respect Anzac traditions. However, he was clearly disappointed after watching his team come within a goal of victory after tonight s late rally at Limestone Park. The Eagles went down 50-46 to Moorooka in the annual Anzac weekend encounter, having come from 11 points down at three-quarter down to almost secure a last-gasp victory. It was a real tough break, Godfrey said. It was a bit too late for us to fight back in the end. Godfrey moved around a lot in past years with his family involved with the defence forces.

Subscriber only ALWAYS reflecting on the game and looking for ways to improve, Kym Mansell was clearly disheartened with last season. Even with the disruptive COVID challenges, he expected more from his Ipswich Eagles side. The loyal clubman also questioned what he could have done better in the QFA Division 2 North competition where Eagles teams regularly make the playoffs. It was very disappointing that we didn t make the finals, Mansell said. If you have a look at the calibre of players we had in our team, and then the bar we set ourselves . . . we were probably the most underperformed team last year.
