Round 18 vs Footscray @ Windy Hill, 12 Noon Saturday 19 August 2017

Been a few weeks since we led at quarter time. Any wind and who had it in the first?

Draper is going to get a real workout today. Loved a stoppage late in the quarter where he got a joint tap, went in to rove, and then laid a lovely block to allow us to clear it.

Wind is absent. After a quick start by them, we really squeezed the life out of Footscray and scored regularly (albeit not as straight as you’d like).

We scored 2.5 to 0 in the second half of that quarter.

BIG SAMMY DRAPES

Brown to bench start of second quarter. Actually, don’t remember him being on ground in the first.

Draper first tap goes deep into Nobby’s guts.

Million Dollar Baby high tackle free to Darby.

Boyd is definitely on negative supercoach points.

Pack mark by Darby. But we flub the rebound, and MDB gets the responding mark and goal.

Darby off, Brown on.

Would love Langford to dominate

Langford touched snap out of a pack is “marked” by Hocking. Still in our forward line.

Langford had no right to get that kick out off that pack, let alone as fast as he did.

And now Langford marks in the forward pocket!

Immediately centres to Younan. Goal!

Seriously, The Langford is killing this. Stays forward after the goal.

Clarke an awful unpressured turnover by foot.

Langford called to the bench, wanders off in the other direction.
