Kalkee coach Stuart Farr was pleased with the win, describing the side as "a bit scratchy" over the first couple of weeks.

"Apart from the third-quarter I thought we were reasonably consistent so that's good moving forward," Farr said.

Farr was impressed with how his side was able to move the ball.

"I was happy with how we shared the footy and moved it at pretty good pace that's obviously our aim we're a pretty short side, so yeah it's pleasing," he said.
