This is the correct score
WEST Rules Football Club has cried
foul over the scoreline reported by this paper as Dockers won
the AFL-Port Moresby on Saturday.
This is what Wests coach Paul Laogo (pictured) is saying about
the scoreline in the weekend match against KDC Dockers.
Laogo said the 42-41 score reported in favour of KDC Dockers was
incorrect. The score was in fact 43-33 in favour of Wests, he
added.
Laogo said that as per official score sheet, Wests ran away with
15 points to two in the opening quarter but Dockers never let it
slip away easily and dominated the second quarters 20-1.
In the third quarter, Wests jumped out of its shell to score 20
point while Dockers collected only seven points.
The final quarter saw an evenly contested affair but Wests
prevailed 7-6 which, Laogo said, should bring the final tally to
43-33.
AFL Port Moresby executive Dominic Kaumu said yesterday that
there was no need for Wests to go to the media if they disagreed
with the official score. “Wests RFC should come and see me and
sort the matter out,” he added.
“Going to media is not helping but only paints a bad picture
while the interim executive is trying to get the competition up
and running”.
In other AFL Port Moresby news, Wests RFC has also questioned
why there were no Wests players in the AFL training squad for
the upcoming championships in Lae.
