VFL Rd 19: Northern Blues vs Box Hill

[crashlander]

Box Hill are 2nd at the moment. We need to beat them this week to make the finals.
Port Melbourne are 3rd and they take on Collingwood. We require Collingwood to lose.
Werribee are below us on percentage. They play the 4th ranked team and have injury worries. We need them to lose as well.

Does it sound likely? I can't say it does. But that is the way it is. We have to beat Box Hill at Box Hill. If we do that we will deserve to be in the finals.

BOX HILL HAWKS v. NORTHERN BLUES

Round 19 – 27/08/2017 02:00PM
Box Hill City Oval

Northern Blues
B: 47. C. Sheehan, 34. J. Glass-McCasker, 45. M. Blakey
HB: 70. H. Macreadie, 13. C. O’Shea, 3. K. Declase
C: 8. L.  Russell, 60. D.  Cuningham, 55. L.  Sumner
HF: 24. R. Palmer, 16. J. Thorpe, 41. S. Glover
F: 76. K. LeBois, 48. K. Jaksch, 56. A. Gallucci
R: 80. M. Korcheck, 32. N. Graham, 1. T. Wilson

23P: 66. D. Costigan

In: H. Payne, T. Jones, Z. Ballard, S. Glover, M. Stavrou

Out: D. Buckley

Losing Buckley hurts. However, no Carlton listed players coming in is ominous. We still look weak in the ruck, but both Korchek and Gorringe have been playing better recently. Whether they can play well enough, well, that is another question.

Box Hill DO have some significant outs. Vickery kicked 4 goals against us last time.

Collingwood lost today so if we win we make it.

Will be tough but would be great to make it on many fronts.

[LP]

Does anyone know if there is a stream, it's a little too cold to venture out today?

3WBC (94.1) have it on radio, would love a video though!

[Baggers]

Almost went, just to send in reports to everyone but 8 degrees, cold southerly, difficulty parking, occasional showers and the prospect of another hiding... well, all just too much! Not even hot pies would compensate, though, it'd be close!  ;D
