    I did see a write up That they were in a mess and playing all their reserves, sad times for what was a very strong club once , both clubs have suffered over the years.
    what time does it start mate? I might head down myself to see if any of my old friends are down there.

    I was at SOTW a couple of weeks ago and the guy signing up next to me was the kid who lived a few doors up when i was a kid too. I hadn't seen in him in 40+ years.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Pennell Reserve from memory, near a big sports centre.

              My crack at the team:

              Williams Collins Russell
              Lynch Hamling Cordy
              Dale Prudden Adcock
              Austin Goetz Hamilton
              Greenwood Redpath Dalgleish
              Campbell Webb Jong

              Minson and Roberts on bench.

                  Hrovat? I don't believe he has an injury.

                      Good pick Easty. Wonder why he isn't named?
                      More of an In Bruges guy?

                        9.3 to 3.1 at qtr time... Footscray kicked with a 2-3 goal breeze.

                        Adcock not out there, Werribee had a team play against AFL Academy last night so the team out here doesn't look very strong.

                          Yeah not sure I'm sure there is a reasonable explanation. Checked the injury thread and he is not named there.

                            15.5 to 7.4

                            Pretty scrappy game, but big difference in class level.

                            Webb, Jong and Hamling prominent that qtr.

                                I missed the first 7 goals, but he has kicked 2-3 whilst I've been watching.

                                Very clean when he has the ball, but still a few things to work on.
