The intraclub match sim is underway!

PERIOD 1:
• Viney grubs one forward from the centre, Fritsch collects a bouncing ball in 50, hands off to Trac who hits Chandler lace out to the RHS pocket - converts from the set shot.
• Lever vocal barking directions down back
• Beautiful passage from Sharpy - Sestan across half back to Sharp who gets & runs. Couple bounces then hits Mentha top of the 50. Hands back to a running sharp who streams inside F50 for the whites first.
• Nice clunk in defence from Petty
• Trac looking focussed & composed with everything he does - just slots a set shot bomb from 50.
• Viney to Caleb to Trac to Oliver. Clarry kicks to the RHS pocket to Chandler who found space again - misses the shot
• Chandler involved in just about every forward entry so far - another set shot from the same RHS pocket. This time he converts!
• Lovely swoop & collect of a lose ball from Bowey deep in defence who then hits Langdon in the back pocket.
• Windsor with the run and carry streaming forward, kicks … misses.
• Kozzy getting busy. One-two through the middle then a long bomb who hits AJ mid stride into the open goal.
• Stoppage half forward 50 - lose ball ends up with Max who hits it sweet from 40. Goal to the skip.
• Viney with the centre clearance hacks it inside 50. Chin gathers another lose ball who hits Rivers in space. Converts from 35.
A quick drinks break & score update:-
Blue 5.3.33
White 2.0.12
• Hendo finds space across half forward 50, back in board to Spargo who kicks in a loonggg ball (35mt) to Campbell marks deep in forward pocket. Misses the set shot
• Who’s chuck? Dark, curly hair & built like a brick @ghostwriter
• Another contested mark in the LHS forward pocket from Campbell against Petty - this time he converts
• Laurie looking the more composed from the Whites - gives off to Kozz who streams through the middle who hits up a leading Campbell again! Then chips to a free Fullarton who converts from 30
• Menth’s a smooth mover, evasive
• Kozzy with Pace thru the middle who pumps one forward. AJ contests deep against two, gathers the ground ball out the back who goals on the line - 5 goal apiece now, Whites with the last 3.
Half time Scores:-
Blue 5. 4. 34
White 5. 1. 31
Period 1 Stand outs:
Trac, Clarry, Chandler, Kozz, Bowey, Windsor, Gawn, Campbell
Roo, Turner & Jeffo barely sited up forward atm.
PERIOD 2:
• Charlie Spargo looking nice for the whites. Confidence is growing
• Beautiful transition work through the middle from Spaz on a couple of occasions. Hits up Roo who then chips one to Fritta 30m out who slots it
• Kozz & Spargo prominent for whites
• Turner looks down on confidence atm - great body work deep in F50 but then drops a sitter. Opportunity missed.
• Not a lot of leading or movement from our forwards, plenty of pointing though.
Another quick drinks break & score update:-
Blue 6.5.41
White 5.2.32
• Our key F50 posts are still very young up forward aren’t we - Jefferson, Turner & Roo
• Lindsay kicks the ball with lovely touch & makes the right decisions
• Long ball in F50 - beautiful contested mark from Roo against many … misses from 35. But better.
• Hendo clean below his knees & with some dash & skill. Looks likely
• Fritta with another set shot now. Better. At times getting be ball across the HB line & using it well.
• McDonald v Roo is a great match up right now - on queue Roo with another contested mark leading in front of Tmac - converts from 35. He’s rolling now & no signs of any back concerns
• Pup converts the set shot from close range
• Great tackle from Clarry on Kozzy - holding the ball• Jeffo nowhere near it atm - up against Adams
Full Time scores:-
