== Coach's Comment ==


We were beaten by a Sturt team who was more committed to a four quarter effort
[[Category:Match Reports 2010]]
than we were. Sturt beat us at our own game. They were stronger around
stoppages and in the contested ball situation. We did not hold our tackles and by
comparison with the opposition, our ball handling was very fumbly.
Glenelg Football Club's senior players and coaches are fully aware that to play
winning football in the SANFL competition we need 21 fully switched on, fully
focused players who are ready to play the game down to the wire. That was not
the case against Surt. All indicators suggest that they were better prepared for the
size of the task.
Now we need a response against the competition title holders, Central District at
Gliderol Stadium on Sunday. Thanks to all who were at Unley supporting the
Glenelg teams on Saturday. It will be great to see you all out in force this Sunday.

GLENELG HAS THE BLUES AT UNLEY

Sturt ensured it's Glenelg ghosts were well and truly buried with a crushing 39-point win at House Brothers Oval on Saturday.

After failing to beat the Tigers in a minor round game for three years, and under pressure after a winless start to the season, the Double Blues responded in emphatic fashion.

Everything that once characterised Glenelg's lengthy winning streak - tackling, intensity and pressure - Sturt simply did better.

"I thought they beat us at our own game, absolutely," Glenelg coach Mark Mickan said.

"It was a real lesson in footy for us.They were harder at the ball than us, we couldn't hold our tackles and we fumbled too much."

Tristan Gum had 32 quality touches for Sturt and was damaging with his run while Matthew Jaensch shone in an unfamiliar role across half back.

It was harder to find positives for Glenelg which lacked poise and at times, discipline.Alex Grima continued his good start to the year with three goals, Ty Allen was great through the middle along with Chris Kane and Matthew Bode, while Ruory Kirkby provided a marking target at half forward.
