No Mutchy.
Very modest crowd here.
Except for me, I’m not modest.
Draper kicks perfect banana kick from top of race as they go off after the warmup.
Jackie enters the Reynolds Stand.
Almost no wind, bright sun, a tad chill in the shade of the stand.
Francis forward. What, you believed a VFL team listing?!?
Draper playing back.
Hocking makes a bad call to leave his man and charge the ball. Luckily they panic and kick it into his smother. A few seconds later the unp pings him for not being all lovey-dovey, though.
Geelong get in-back tackle off Langford deep in their forward line. Goal.
0-6 we trail.
Stanton at half back.
Tommy got two good touches in the very first [p]lay of the day.
Sounds too friendly for a game of footy…
How many time over we slip?
Francis barges through a couple tackles, holding the ball in one hand all the way.
Birdy Num Num marks 42 out. Point, though Francis marked it one centimetre over the line.
1-6
Old stagers being retrained as defenders? It’s an old trick and it might just work. Maybe.
Man sneaks up from back for them to mark at 44 uncontested.
And misses everything, on the full.
1-7
A bit of shonky kicking by both teams right now.
Smack has a dislocated finger. They’re having difficulty getting it right.
