Belted Bendigo (without too many Essendon players) by what was, I think, 109 points (134 vs 25).

Goals: Peverill 4, Colbert 2, Thoolen 2, Dick, Sheahan, Keefe, Medhurst, Hogan, Blair, Bennell, #4 (not sure of the name), Frost, McCarthy, Mahoney, Pendlebury.

A training drill, in effect. Medhurst, McCarthy, Dick, Corrie, Thoolen, Keefe, Francis, Blair and Bennell all played. Pebbles did not.

A rough guide as to how they set up in the first term:

B: 4, Thoolen, Mugavin.
HB: Francis, Pendlebury, Mahoney.
C: McCarthy, Blair, Corrie.
HF: Colbert, Dick, Nicholls.
F: Bennell, Frost, ?.
R: Keefe, Medhurst, Peverill.
INTER: Hogan, Folino, Sheahan, Hunt

From start to finish, we belted them. They only managed about four goals, and went for long periods of time struggling to pass half forward.

Thanks for that. I managed to see the last quarter after work and had no idea of the scores.

The VFL team is going alright this year so far, hopefully we'll see a few more wins when the season comes around.

I think our VFL team will do well this season. Great to read the report on Medhurst, Dick and McCarthy all doing well.

Also encouraging to read about Jarryd Blair. That's another draft pick showing some early form.

What was NOT said about Dawes worries me though. He has to pull his finger out this year. He showed enough late last year to indicate he can play AFL footy, but he must be low on confidence at the moment.

no player on the senior list could play without special permission from the AFL, only Rocca, Medhurst, McCarthy, Dick and Corrie where nominated. Rookies like Bennel, Keefe, etc could play, but not senior guys.
go pies!
