[hayes]

Geelong with the first goal.

Sandy 0.2.2
Geelong 1.1.7

 

[Hayes4PM]

I'd love for White, Minchington and Wright to have great games.

 

[hayes]

Geelong out to a 4 goal lead now. White with the miss and it's 0.3 to 4.2.

 

[Barrels]

6 goals to none at qtr time.

Ordinary.

 

[hayes]

Getting ugly now. White into the ruck as a sign of desperation.

0.4
11.4

Minchington soccers through our first goal.

 

[Hayes4PM]

Wow, a few boys had a drink or 2 last night to celebrate maybe..?

 

[hayes]

2.4 to 14.4. It's a destroyation.

 

[hayes]

Milera goal off a pass from Ross. 3.4 to 15.5 at 1/2 time.

 

[TyroneVickery29]

Is Acres playing?

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Is Acres playing?

no

 

[hayes]

Jones and Ross have been busy. Forward line players quiet.

Minchington with two goals.

 

[Barrels]

Jones and Ross have been busy. Forward line players quiet.

Minchington with two goals.

Going to be interesting to see what happens at the end of the season with Minch and Shents.

Shents has been a trier, had one or two shockers, but gives us a bigger body with some decent speed. Then again, we have a lot of HBFers and does he have the skills for the wing?

Minch has a lot of class and good footskills, but has had injury issues and is quite small in the modern game. Does he have a big enough tank to have a run on the ball like Billings did last night?

Both have shown enough to stay around, but probably only one will, and neither might.

 

[Periphery]

no

I wonder what the chances of us seeing him play another senior game this year are.

 

[hayes]

White goals and it's 6.8 to 19.5.

 

[Barrels]

6.8. 44 to 20.8. 128 at 3qtr time...

Sandy showing the signs of a long season and long injury list.

 

[saintkildaman]

Any update?

 

[hayes]

Belted 45 to 174.

 

[Manimal_Dunstan]

Belted 45 to 174.

Ouch....

A lot of the saints players are injured so that wouldn't have helped.

 

[Big Mart]

A decimated team. 9 saints players... Holmes injured early... Pierce injured late.

Seb Ross clearly the best Saint... In fact the only bright light. He dominated the clearances, had not talent around him.

Without
Maister, Lee, Siposs, Saunders, Hickey, Acres out injured
Whilst regulars
Roberton, Bruce, Curran, Murdoch replacing Webster, Steven, Geary, Gilbert.

Half a development team will not compete with a very good VFL team.

How did big spence go?

 

[Hubnester]

Holmes injured early... Pierce injured late.

Oh christ, that isn't good.
Gotta stop having run-ins with players. Bumped into Markworth once, right before he got injured in the VFL. Met Holmes last night... Bugger.

 

[hayes]

How did big spence go?

Kicked a goal and missed one but was quiet. By the looks of it it didn't get down there much!

 

[SaintLex]

Did we have a forward line at all, apart from big Spence?
