Zebras - First Practice Match

Featured Replies

Posted

Sandringham starts its pre season campaign next weekend with two practice matches at Trevor Barker Beach Oval against old rivals Port Melbourne.

Saturday 1 March 2008#

Seniors start 2.00pm, Reserves at 11.10am.

Admission:

Adults - $5

Concession - $3

Visiting Members - $3

Sandringham Season Ticket Holders - FREE

With the Demons likely to step up their own campaign and some experienced faces due to return to the team for Friday night's Nab Challenge game v Western Bulldogs, we can expect to see some fresh new faces to the lists of both clubs as well as some of our old Zebra favourites.

I'm not up to speed so far as memberships are concerned but last year MFC members could pick up a SFC membership for free. Hopefully, the same applies this year.

There's a good article on the Zebras in this week's Inside Football by Paul Amy entitled 'Hungry' Zebs rue one that got away.

He writes that when Andy Lovell arrived at Sandringham, he wondered if complacency had set into the club but he has found the opposite - a sense of unfinished business. This filters through from the top to the senior players who have trained extremely well - Pete Summers, Rod Crowe, Chris Lamb, Chad Liddell and Ezra Poyas have all been fantastic. Same with Ezra Poyas.

President Gerry Ryan confirmed the sense of failure and spoke of the fact that there's "a lot of determination about the club" ... "a lot of enthusiasm." He said Lovell had impressed "in every way" and the club believed he would "take us to another level".

The Zebras have, in the main, stayed out of the recruiting game over summer, preferring to push up the group of young players who emerged impressively last year including Tomi Johnston, Sam Monaghan and Rennie Gilchrist who have all been training well. However, Stuart Cleeve, a 194cm key position forward could take a step up to senior level after two seasons with the reserves. Other signings include 2007 Dragons best and fairest Brad Gilder, Beaumaris midfielder/half forward Chris Waller and Southport's Andrew McConnell, who came out of the Dragons' program at the end of 2006.

Delisted Melbourne rookie Danny Hughes, who was drafted from Sandy, is staying at Trevor Barker Oval but groin and hip operations will keep him but of the first half of the season and Scott Lockwood is also back.

I think we need to lobby Sandringham FC to move the practice match against Box Hill on Sunday March 23rd back an hour so its all over by just after 3pm so everyone (supporters, coaches, players) can make it back to the MCG.

As it stands right now, Sandy play Box Hill at 2pm which will go until 4.15 or so, doesn't given anybody much time.

Surely clashes should be avoided when it comes to praccy games. Particularly when its Sandy v Box Hill and Melbourne v Hawthorn!

 

I hope there's one or two Demons running around as I'll be there for this game...

If I notice anyone I'll try to keep Demonland up to speed.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
