Hocking back and mid (especially in that second quarter).

How well has Hocking played all season?
When will he be in the senior team?

The long-sleeved 61 Wil Berry has done a few nice things.

Laverde doesn’t even have socks protecting his ankle.

Lots of senior players here tonight. Conor’s got huge grapes.

Footscray’s two behemoths have been significant tonight.

Merrett and Long on the wings. Mutch Langford Hocking Loony start in middle.

Redman forward again.

Begley and Long get it to Smack at fifty. Lost his man… and lost his accuracy. On the full.

Is that a euphemism?

Footscray consistently tackling after the ball is gone/was never there.

Begley tackle free on wing followed by shocking turnover kick. Has been good otherwise.

Mutch high frees: 4

They want him dead.

Ridley starts composed rebound that sees Smack one-on-two in front of goal.

CLUNK!

Goal!

40-49 at 8:30 into the third.

Smack is the only threatening thing about this team.

Dea punished for going for the ball in slippery conditions (“took the legs”). A free that hates football.

Luckily only a point.

40-50
