Newcastle Jets A-League Grand Finalists
02 May 2018
I commend three constituents from the Charlestown electorate who will this Saturday be playing for the Newcastle Jets in the A-League home g rand f inal . Keeping the goals will be Glen Moss, defending will be Captain Nigel Boogaard, and young Lachlan Jackson will have his eyes on central defence. I also congratulate the Newcastle Jets team members on their spectacular semi final win last Friday against Melbourne City Fo otball Club . I have no doubts that the players will continue their stand out performance this Saturday , facing off against Melbourne Victory. The last time a team in one of Australia's four major football competitions went from being wooden spooners to cha mpions in 12 months was 84years ago. W hat a team! I will be fortunate enough to be among the 30,000 Novocastrian fans in the grandstands this Saturday cheering the team on to a grand final win . Go Jets!
