      65 to 49 at 3Q time, our way. Hrovat with a lovely goal, and Honey with an opportunistic goal from the square.

      Willy had 2 defenders on Boyd at all times in that quarter, given we had the wind.

      Anyone's game.
      Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

              I wasn't there but it sounds like a great win and full of character. Very hard ground to win at.
              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                It's hard to work out if they have updated the ladder yet.

                    Sometimes you forget how young these kids are!
                    Surely if the umpire calls play on then he can leave the goal square. If the forward is allowed into the goal square to tackle then it stands to reason the defender should be able to leave it? Otherwise it's like saying play on to you 35 players but you in the goal square it's still a set kick. Doesn't make sense.

                        Great to see a lot of the senior players there and mixing with the supporters. Well done boys.

                        Also i thought Ayce presented well especially late in the game when Willy were pressing. I only saw the second half and he definitely had more of an impact than Will.

                            Couldn't agree more. I don't understand if it's called play on, you have to touch the ball on your foot !!

                              Channel 7 had Sandy beating Port??
                              I'd say we're 4th.
