VFL Game Day VFL Round 13: 67 point loss to Sandringham

[eth-dog]

Thought we had a bye this week but obviously not. Make our annual trip down the coast against Sandy this week. Teams:



We have a decent chance in this one on paper, Dons by 15

Is this broadcast anywhere?

Clarke off to a good start.
Goal to McLarty
Goal to Tom Hird

Ess 2.0 12
Sand 4.2 26

 

[Old Campaigner]

Sounds like we got reamed out. Any of the kids do any good?

Hird kicked 3 apparently?

 

[Ati Tude]

Hird kicked 3 apparently?

Lost 137 - 70. Hird leading goal scorer with 3, McLarty 2 and Sutton 2. Ham had 32 touches and Clarke 22. Bryan a lot of hit outs but not too many touchers. Eyre very quiet. McBride not much. Durham 17 touches, Brand 10 touches. BZT ok. Cahill fairly quiet. Think those are main players of interest.

No one really knocking the door down other than Ham. If Tippa or Snelling got injured, maybe Hird comes into consideration. Or maybe he gets in somewhere near the end of the season.

It seems Hird is really getting better each game.

Hird's basic form line since being switched forward for the first time is...

Goals.Behinds | Disposals | Tackles
3.1 | 13 | 4
0.0 | 10 | 2
1.1 | 18 | 4
0.0 | 16 | 3

Handy numbers for a half-forward in a team getting spanked on the regular.

For those interested, Jake Sutton is a former Calder Cannon who is a medium forward that averaged 1 goal/game in 2019 in the NAB League.

Looks like we're playing Coburg next week at Windy Hill.

So no Ambrose, no Zaharakis, no Francis? Ambrose was sore last week but we didn't hear anything else, and Zaharakis is supposed to be healthy but I think Cherny said he had a wrist brace last week. Francis is training at the club after being in SA but not playing, apparently?
