VFL Round #7: Northern Blues vs. Box Hill Hawks

[bignic]

Thanks Wet Willie, for the contact. I've watched for the last 5 minutes, and the standard is appalling. WE don't have much to work with.

It's getting willing out there in tough conditions.

Fraser Russell kicks across the face and doesn't score. The next player a free given against Holman at the other end of the ground sees a 80m free kick and Simpkins kicks truly.

Box Hill Hawks 11. 6. (72) Northern Blues 6. 4. (40)

By the way, Wet Willie, have you met Watson ??  > > >:

Sorry Crash, couldn't help myself.

I'll go and stand in the corner now. :-[ :-[ :-[

Blues not able to run hard enough back in defence. McEvoy marks uncontested and goals.

Kruezer now off for the day having calfs iced. He's been good today although not outstanding.

Box Hill Hawks 13. 6. (85) Northern Blues 6. 5. (41)

Whitecross makes a rookie mistake kicking across the forward 50 and Watson marks for a shot on goal.

Kicks truly and that gives him two for the day.

Box Hill Hawks 13. 6. (85) Northern Blues 7. 6. (48)

Bolger now rucking for the Blues with Kruezer off.

Simpkins soccers one through:

Box Hill Hawks 14. 6. (90) Northern Blues 7. 6. (48)

Gowers marks for the Blues and kicks well.

Box Hill Hawks 14, 6. (90) Northern Blues 8. 6. (54)

Don't know if you are watching this SPf through the live streaming, but we just don't appear to have anyone who even looks like making it to the top level at this stage. Not saying that another pre-season won't improve a few, but they just look undersized, lack skills, and frankly terrible.

The new coach is gunna earn his bikkies, that's for sure.

At least the Pies are copping it up the clacker. No gold coat for Joffa today ;D ;D ;D ;D

[spf]

Shoenmakers looks like plugger against our backs.

Kicks his 3rd for the day.

Box Hill Hawks 15. 6. (96) Northern Blues 7. 6. (48)

Wilson has been good for us today and really tried hard and  I think Walsh is getting better each week but the Hawks are just a class above and we never looked likely.
