2nds Williamstown vs Northern Bullants (VFL Prelim)

[Testekill]

After missing a week thanks to Williamstown pancaking Port Melbourne, we draw ever closer to the end of the season.The Bullants held out against Casey last week to win by 11 points and sneak through with the upset victory against the Scorpions.

Best of all, if you can make it to the VFL games then you can make it a triple header thanks to our boys playing that night also.

-Other Stuff-

J.J Liston Trophy- Congratulations to Shane Valenti of Port Melbourne and Stephen Clifton who drew for the J.J Liston Trophy with 20 votes. Matt Little was the highest polling seagull with 11 votes while Bulldogs listed players Minson, Addison and Roughead finished with 8, 7 and 6 votes respectively.

Cravino cleaned up the reserves poll and won with 28 votes.

Peter Faulks, Matt Little, Ben Davies, Brett Johnson and Ben Jolley were all named in the VFL team of the year.

Andrew Hooper- Well done to Hoops for being named to make his debut tomorrow. He's deserved it so much.

Fev and Little Fev- Hands up if you didn't see this coming. It's pretty much a forgone conclusion that Fev is going to shoot himself in the foot time and time again.

Leon Cameron moving on- More power to him. He can get some experience at another club and put his hand up when he feels that he is properly experienced.

 

[stefoid]

he heh, little Fev

 

[TempleKelvington]

Thanks for the review......I think we need to you to keep us up to date on all things VFL.

I plan on going to all 3 games. Looking forward to it. Hope Willi can over come their prelim hoodoo....good luck to the reserves also in the Granny....

Let's make it 3 wins tomorrow....be a nice day if it happened.

 

[stmookeyj]

Hopefully Box Hill's in better nick than what Port Melbourne was last week. Saw the Port Melbourne vs Box Hill game on IView and it was worse than the Whitten ever was. Just hope it doesn't rain a lot either.

Which 3 listed players will miss out and play in the 2's GF?

 

[Testekill]

It'll probably be Prato, Mulligan and Boumann.

 

[Werewolf]

Twitter has reserves level at 3qtr time after trailing by 27 points at half time... https://twitter.com/WilliamstownFC

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Hopefully they can keep it up.

 

[flamethrower]

Willy reserves went down by 17 points.

 

[dogz]

All 3 Emg's playing?

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Looked like someone just came to the bench with a hand problem before the first bounce...
ANyone else see that?

EDIT: They just showed the bench and all looked fine... must have just been holding his hand weird.

 

[dogz]

First goal to Everitt!
I doubt if we beat the Swans, Eade will make changes, but nice kick for goal from a free!
Hill playing too, not seen Moles yet.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

All 3 Emg's playing?

Yep.

Wait, haven't seen Moles yet either lol.

 

[dogz]

Someone using a microphone or something?
Very annoying crowd noise!
Moles is there, just got a touch, no changes tonight

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Moles playing. All emergencies are in so I guess no changes tonight.

 

[Testekill]

Williamstown has been in control so far. Stack kicked a goal while Everitt has been lively.

God, how good is Faulks though? He's cutting everything off.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Markovic has been good early too.

 

[The Boy From Brasil]

This maybe a stupid or naive statement.

But wouldn't it be advisable if we kept a player(who wasn't selected in the AFL seniors) fresh from playing today, just as a back up in case of a last minute injury to a senior player or a player doing an injury in the warm up?

It is an unlikely scenario that it would happen, but we are playing a final tonight. What happens if someone pulls out in the last minute? We have to play a player who has already played a game during the day?

last hour you mean, cant pull out in the last minute unless you want a 25k fine.

If a emergency already played in the VFL they play 2 games in one day, like David Hale this year or Brad Dick playing 2 games in 2 days.

Yes, I can understand that happening in a H & A. But given the importance of us playing in a knock out final tonight, I thought we might take the precaution of keeping one player fresh, just in case of anything unexpected happening to one of our senior players before tonights game.

Anyway, no problem.

How is Stack going?

 

[nate drake]

Willi have the Bulldogs prelim curse, it seems.

Stack has been shit.

 

[Kashmir80]

Well I think the MC for the Bulldogs are being made to look pretty smart at the moment. Moles has been a turn over king and Roughead looks injured so probably best he wasn't risked. Everitt, Hill & Stack playing their usual games (and by that I mean - when they don't have an opponent they look great but when they do they look out of their depth even at VFL level). Jones is probably the only one who could feel unlucky.
And I am really disappointed and worried about our top draft pick this year in Howard (#30) - poor effort, looks slow and deplorable decision making!
This could turn out to be a horrible day for us! Hope the Dogs can turn it around tonight!

 

[Hard Ball Get]

All over now. Shocking effort.
Roughy getting smashed in the middle.

 

[staphy]

Willi show about as much intensity as the Dogs none, and people calling for Everitt , Moles and Hill to get a game they are terrible. The only one that can hold his head high is Callan .

 

[SettledownBarry]

Josh Hill may be delisting himself with this performance. He could not look more dis-interested. I know he is a laid back character but this is ridiculous. Everitt the only one actually standing up.

I agree it looks as though MC made the right call on Moles & Rough.

2 goals in a minute including a massive bomb from Everitt, & there is almost a 3rd in 2mins,was just touched. Still a chance anyone think?

 

[Hard Ball Get]

I don't think Everitt has been that bad. Just kicked his 3rd.
