South Adelaide's Under-18s fell to their second defeat of the season following an 11.8 (74) to 13.8 (86) loss to West Adelaide at City Mazda Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Unfortunately the Under-18s were unable to play the style of football we would have liked in Saturday's match against West Adelaide at Richmond.

Beaten too many times around the ground and with a number of skill errors, especially in the first half, the boys struggled to gain any real control over the game.

Despite hitting the front in the third quarter kicking with a strong breeze we couldn't maintain any ascendancy.

In the last quarter we allowed West a few easy shots on goal and they eventually got on top of us by two goals.

It was a disappointing result, which highlighted a number of areas that we need to improve on.

Nick Steele was our best, working very hard as a strong forward and kicking four goals.
