Thunder look to continue momentum built before break

Thursday, June 5, 2014 - 2:53 PM - by Chris Pike
PEEL Thunder had been close to a win all season and never more so than in its loss to West Perth prior to its eventual win over South Fremantle, but now the Mandurah-based club has had three weeks to gear up for a strong second half of the season. Peel had been competitive in losses to East Perth, Swan Districts, East Fremantle, Claremont, Subiaco and Perth, but it was the defeat to West Perth at Arena Joondalup in Round 8 that left the Thunder at make or break point. Peel outplayed the reigning WAFL premiers all day long just about before losing on the last kick of the day from Anthony Tsalikis. The way the Thunder responded to that heartbreak was what coach Cam Shepherd was focused on and he couldn’t have been more delighted with Peel putting in its best performance in almost a year to break an 18-game winning streak with a commanding 24-point win over South Fremantle at Bendigo Bank Stadium.
