[The Oracle 130]

Early daws with a goal each.

Shaun Marusic goaled first for Gippy followed by Calder's grand final specialist Luke Mitchell.

Now a goal to Dion Prestia of Cannons puts them a goal in front.

[The Oracle 130]

Freak goal to Marusic playing on Matthew Watson.

Calder leads 3.1.19 to 2.0.12.

[No16 1]

Was it last year that sidebottom kicked 10 goals in the TAC cup grand final?

[The Oracle 130]

Was it last year that sidebottom kicked 10 goals in the TAC cup grand final?

Two years ago.

[BAMF 4,300]

Was it last year that sidebottom kicked 10 goals in the TAC cup grand final?

2 years ago.

[jayceebee31 759]

Was it last year that sidebottom kicked 10 goals in the TAC cup grand final?

No- the year before.Last year I stated MFC should look at Luke Mitchell- however he was too young.Luke trained with GC but wasn't picked up- Maybe this year- he is starring already. Kicked 3 so far.

[KC from Casey 7,061]

Come on Gippsland!

[The Oracle 130]

Quarter Time: Calder Cannons 5.2.32 to Gippsland Power 2.1.13.

Goals:

Calder Mitchell 3 Prestia Schroder

Gippsland Marusic 2

Mitch Wallis starring for the Cannons getting lots of ball out of the middle and giving his forward plenty of opportunities. Luke Mitchell killing it with three goals.

Heppell being well covered with the Cannons smothering him at every effort.

[The Oracle 130]

AFirst goal of the second quarter a ripper to Clay Smith of Gippy from a pocket, followed by a quick reply from Tim Sheridan of the Cannons.

Lack of discipline by Prestia gives away a 50m penalty to Tim Northe. Gippsland trail by 13 points.

[jayceebee31 759]

Come on Gippsland!

There coming back- just 6 points down

[The Oracle 130]

Jed Lamb with those yellow boots goals and it's down to 6 points the difference.

[The Oracle 130]

A few late goals to the Cannons including one just on the break to Schroder puts Calder in a strong position to win the flag:

Calder Cannons 9.7.61

Gippsland Power 5.3.33

Goals

Calder Mitchell 3 Schroeder 2 Prestia McLeod Kefford Meli

Gippsland Marusic 2 Northe Lamb Smith

[The Oracle 130]

Two goals to Kefford who has taken over at full forward makes it a 40 point margin.

[The Oracle 130]

Dean McDonald gets one off the ground for Gippy.

[The Oracle 130]

Great long run from Lamb for his second goal.

However, Luke Mitchell's fourth, followed by another put the Cannons 41 points in front.

This kid is no Serhat Temel BTW.

[The Oracle 130]

All one way traffic - Calder 9 goals in front.

Wallis is an absolute ball magnet. Prestia and Libba not too shabby either.

Mitchell is a dangerous big man up forward.

[jayceebee31 759]

Great long run from Lamb for his second goal.

However, Luke Mitchell's fourth, followed by another put the Cannons 41 points in front.

This kid is no Serhat Temel BTW.

Is he better than my Serhat or not?

[No16 1]

This kid is no Serhat Temel BTW.

Does anyone know if he is still playing?

[The Oracle 130]

Three Quarter Time

Calder Cannons 16.11.107

Gippsland Power 7.5.47

Goals

Calder Mitchell 5 Schroder Kefford Meli 2 Prestia Sheridan Grenfell Sullivan Murphy

Gippsland Lamb Marusic 2 Northe McDonald Smith

[Demon Head 271]

Is he better than my Serhat or not?

Rhetorical question, surely?

[The Oracle 130]

Is he better than my Serhat or not?

Better.

[The Oracle 130]

Game over with a 58 point win for Calder Cannons - their 6th flag in a decade.

Mitch Wallis (47 disposals) was clearly best player on the ground and Dion Prestia was not far behind him among the best. Luke Mitchell is looking a terrific forward prospect.

Draft winner is the Bulldogs who will get Wallis and Liberatore through the father/son rule.

Wallis guides Calder to win
