Gray to Kelly, can't mark Broomhead roves, centres towards Kirby who flicks it cleverly over to Ramsay, snaps misses

On Vicky Park what do you make of Lynch's head band?

As I type Lynch eventually gets the ball to Howe, after waxing back and worth with a teammate. Howe marks on the wing, 50m penalty, goal.

I'm not there today barrackers, in fact I've just arrived back in Melbourne, am literally on way home from airport. I will investigate if Lynch has transgressed. I sincerely hope it's not a McEnroe 1970s tennis-style head band.

Sounds like the Pies are having a picnic, but that NB have done their homework on KK. Good learning experience for him, on his way to superstardom.

NB nice kick hit the post after transitioning from a strong spoil by Lynch at half forward

The headband is just a thin black number. A big win looks likely, we're currently up by 79.

Williamstown have just taken the lead over Werribee (36-32 in the 2nd quarter). We do need Werribee to lose to make this a very big day for the VFL side.
