In near identical scorelines both the Senior and the Development side won by 73 points against a Box Hill team with no AFL representation. It was a perfect opening hit-out for the Seagulls who avoided any injuries and were able to get valuable game time into a variety of key players.

Jamie McNamara showed what an asset he will be for Williamstown this year while a number of young first year players impressed across the two games.

Some good names in the goal kickers list. If anyone can get down on Friday a report would be great.

We've certainly had trouble with them in recent times, but we did hammer them in the finals last year. Minson and Panos cut them to pieces.

We are not the only ones they have the wood on. They are habitual winners.

I was talking about the Practice match specifically but I agree they've been very good against us. Hopefully losing Stephenson might change that.
