Four goal festive win for Kylies

22 December 1996, Division Six at Mannington

KMLC FC 4 ISSC 0

The Kylies made sure they were having a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with a fifth straight league victory.

There were six different scorers last week and four this but they were more familiar names. Hobbs got things under way, scoring for the third game in a row. Swatty had been turning into more of a provider this season but he was back on target and also shared MVP with Hobbit.

Watty was back and among the goals taking him to seven in his last six appearances and Mikey Cox got off the bench to bag a goal for the third game in a row.

The team had earned their festive break. What would 1997 bring?

Kylies send strong signal to Motorola

15 December 1996, Division Six at Lydiard

Motorola 1 KMLC FC 6

Four wins in a row. Seven out of eight in the league. Thirty goals in seven games. The Kylies were flying and Motorola were no match for the team.

Incredibly there were six different scorers too. With Watty missing it was Swatty who led the line superbly to win MVP. Perhaps the most notable scorer though was Neil Summers. After more than 50 games for the club he finally broke his duck. Well played Sir!

Kylie goal rush continues

8 December 1996, Division Six at Mannington

KMLC FC 5 Nationwide 1

One of the real purple patches in Kylie history continued with another big win, this time against new opponents in Nationwide.

Watty made it five in three games with another brace, Gould was on the scoresheet again and there were also strikes from Hobbit and Coxy. Swatty returned after a three game absence but showed his versatility in an unfamiliar fullback role.

Interestingly none of the scorers picked up the MVP this week. That went to Carpo who must have given a fine performance in defence. Hobbs picked up his third Spoons of the season despite his goal.
