VFL Sandringham vs Footscray 12:10pm 21 July

this year at least

 

[Mattie2016]

Bailey Williams back on the field in the 3rd quarter, and not off yet as game day emergency. He has looked composed.

West has impressed again, along with Rueben Willam (2 goals), Roberts, Drumand, Jong and Lewie Young. Hayes has been busy also. Loved Sweet's game and his reading of the play. Morris has been very quiet (2 possessions thus far), as has Gowers. Dogs by 19 points.

Bulldogs finally kick the first goal of the quarter

 

[Bemoreboyddog]

Billy just took a hanger and slotted a goal from 50 out on the boundary right in front of Dal.

 

[Mattie2016]

Gowers with a ripping mark and goal. Dogs by 25.

 

[Mattie2016]

Hayes on his way to Marvel. Will he be a late inclusion?

You Positive

Hayes on his way to Marvel. Will he be a late inclusion?

Bloody hope not.

 

[SirBont]

He would be pretty nervous his last game was a really poor performance was playing inside against one of the best teams in the comp tough ask

Hayes on his way to Marvel. Will he be a late inclusion?

No way. Unless it's an unexpected withdrawal at the last minute.
If it was a planned withdrawal (ie we knew this morning that player x wasn't going to be able to play) then Hayes wouldn't have played at all in the VFL.

 

[CDBulldog]

WHAT!!!!!!!! Tell it me it ain’t so....

 

[Mattie2016]

Gowers has been fantastic this quarter after a sluggish first half. Combining well with Jong and have helped the Dogs out to a 63-35 scoreline.

 

[SirBont]

Have to Eat my words then about time I guess

 

[Testekill]

Scott kicks a goal on the siren 69-35

 

[Testekill]

Goals: William, Scott, Gleeson 2, McComb, Boyd, Gowers

 

[DognBones]

3/4 Time: Foots 9.15 Sand 5.5
Disp: West 19, Williams 15, Gowers 13, Porter 15, Scott 14
Goals: Gleeson 2, Scott, 2, William 2, Boyd, Gowers, McComb
Sweet: 39 hitouts

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Surely you would call in West not Hayes

 

[weltschmerz]

I guess maybe they wouldn't want to debut a player at such short notice, especially one like West who already has a well known name.

 

[Brian Perrin]

Still think it’s just a precaution - if it was a material risk you wouldn’t want to play someone for a half and then throw them in for 4 quarters

Gowers has his second.

 

[Mattie2016]

12 minutes into the final quarter and Dogs lead by 28 points. Gowers best on ground in second half. So he, West, Jong, Morris and Williams all pressing for selection. Pressure on our senior boys today to perform. Add McLean and Richards as two others who we will expect to be available in two weeks, and it is good signs for our run towards AFL finals.

Yeah you’re not going to make a player debut after playing a half of football earlier in the day.

 

[Mattie2016]

Zebras attacking hard, but West ices the game with a pass to Edwards for a goal. Dogs by 26 with 7 minutes remaining. West 21 touches, Williams 19, Roberts 19 and Lynch 16, the most prolific.

 

[Testekill]

Edwards kicks his second, 37 up

Hayes on his way to Marvel. Will he be a late inclusion?

always have 1 player play a half when vfl plays same day but before. cover for a late out, not taken out because of a late out
