Watling returns to down Akers

18 February 1996, Division Seven at Ballards Ash

Akers Garage 3 KMLC FC 4

Watty had scored on debut in the Knockout Cup back in September but had been absent since. (Injury?) With Swatridge missing for this one the frontman's return was timely.

Gunning and leading scorer Kelly both got goals but Watling's brace and MVP performance was crucial in downing the Kylies' main rivals and getting the team back to winning ways.

The game was also notable for the debut of Simon 'Tan Boy' Williams.
