2019 March 7th 4pm Practice Hitout vs Geelong GMHBA stadium

This is your chance to OD on Essendon playing footy.
This game starts 3hrs and 10 minutes ahead of the main game.

Dylan Clarke, Ham ( lets not call him “Hammy” ) and Draper get to try out in the AFL, while a number of players who did JLT1 will get their chance to play more minutes down a level.

Stewart played well last Saturday and will be disappointed to not get a go in the 1s.

Lets hope someone is going to this game to give us a report, because there’s nothing on the EFC website VFL section and reports on the VFL praccy matches are non existent in the official media.

Mase is still a little while away I think, presume Matty Dea is too, not sure about the others. I’ll post a team list if I can get my hands on one shortly.
I’ll be over there, I think we’ve got our VFL media person starting tonight so hopefully there might be a little social media activity, otherwise I might try to post some updates on the twitter account.

I want to believe he will become a very good player.

Geelong VFL Twitter says that Houlahan has kicked the first 3 goals of the match…

…if true, clear out the 50! Give the man some space!

Talent can’t be questioned just needs the penny to drop.

I only saw the last 10 minutes of the quarter but Smack took a couple of really strong contested marks and Lav got a bit of it playing on the ball

Are Dyl Clarke and Ham playing as per the team sheet?

No Zac Clarke listed in VFL. Ham listed.

Just for clarity of those that may be overseas, or uncertain of times. The game that is being spoken about is the VFL practice game. The VFL practice game is being played as a curtain raiser to the AFL practice game later on tonight.

This has been a public service announcement.

Dylan Clarke was out with the group at 1/4 time in his gear but doesn’t look like he’s playing

Laverde just got crunched in a marking contest and was taken from the ground. Stewart kicked a goal from the free

Why are names 1-7 (besides Stewart) so much more millenial than anyone else? Is Cometti going to call our players “working the ball generationally”?

Stewart gets another free in a wrestle just in the square and kicks another.
6.4.40 to 1 point
