Weekly Times | CARISBROOK coach Tim McKay hopes to get some stability in the Redbacks’ line-up in the last weeks of the Maryborough Castlemaine District league season before finals.
McKay, a legend at Skipton Football Club, where he won multiple premierships as a coach and player, joined the Redbacks this season after a brief hiatus from a senior coaching role.
There is strong competition at the top of the Maryborough Castlemaine ladder as sides fight to make the top eight. Only two games separates Maryborough Rovers in eighth and Maldon in 13th with three rounds to play.
Carisbrook defeated top-four hopeful Natte Bealiba by 18 points on Saturday and next Saturday, due to a split round, will tackle two-time reigning premier Navarre — which has not lost a game since the 2013 qualifying final — in a grand final rematch.
“Hopefully over the next (games) against Navarre and Royal Park we’ll continue to improve as a group,” McKay said.
