VFLW - Practice Match vs Port Melb @ The Hangar, starting some time between 10am-12noon, Saturday 2nd March 2024

AshleyCooper hits up Caruso…

Contested win for Jordan on the wing.

Tried it again… but SFord intercepted!

Manfre’s jumper blatantly pulled one metre from the goal line.

Nope.

3-7

Ryan on the full from the boundary flank.

18 minute quarter as Richardson shepherds, collects, and pumps the ball into fifty.

Wind would be worth a scoring shot at least.

The ants up here today are sparse and slow. And a bunch of the trees are gone.

We did alright, eventually. I’d feel a crapload more confident with Marshall and Ford down back this coming quarter, though…

Forward line is Manfre, a slow-ish 150cm player, and utilities. But they’ve created a bit of space for themselves.

Backline to start the second quarter: Robinson Morrow LilyBateman Shaw McNeice.

Marnie aside, that’s not comforting.

3-8

Shaw kicking out. Sideways to Chaston, who scoots off to fifty.

McNeice rundown tackle as Port rebound and are running the ball into range.

Then Karly marks the next entry, too.

And the next!

3-9, yet to reach our half this quarter.

Gallagher is a bit unco.

Our tackling has been good. Another free for Davidge.

Third throw in rapid succession is paid at our fifty. Needed a dozen outstretched arms in protest to get that done.

Morrow another good contested draw.

3-10

Morrow is very good down back!
