VFL Rd 14: Northern Blues vs Geelong

July 05, 2016, 02:41:14 pm

Thus game was set for Ikon Park, but has again been moved to Preston. Still on Saturday at 1400.
The curtain raiser is a female game starting at 1100.

I don't know why the game is being moved. I can't imagine that the ground is in any worse condition that Preston is (the middle there is shocking). However, that is how it is working out.

23P: 21. C Barrett

This team will not line up this way. At least 5 guys won't be there, 1 certain Emergency won't play nor the senior Interchange.
I don't think Charlie Curnow will play either. he will probably have a full game at Development League level.

Appalling start again by the NBs. No goals in the first quarter.
DISPOSALS: Wilson 8, Dick 8, Jaksch 7, Gowers 6, Tutt 6, Buckley 5.

Tutt kicks our 1st midway through the 2nd quarter:
NBs 1 - 7 - 13
Geel 10 - 6 - 66

2 quick goals before the half time siren and the Blues are merely behind instead of disgraceful.

NBs 3 - 7 - 25
Geel 10 - 6 - 66

Bad kicking is bad football, and we had 7 behinds up before we managed a goal. They had 9 goals to that point. That does not say much positive about our starts. Last week we lost it in the 1st quarter: looks like we are trying to repeat it.

GOALS: Tutt, Strachan, Viojo-Rainbow.
DISPOSALS: Dick 16, Wilson 14, Tutt 11, Buckley 11, Jaksch 10, Kerbatieh 9.

Last week we started poorly, but Wood came good, to produce his best game of the year. We really need a repeat, but Wood's form has been less than impressive this year. Korchek is very much learning.

It looks like Graham is the emergency and is not playing.

Charlie Curnow gets his 1st VFL goal (!) after good work by Gowers.

3/4 time and the game is gone, but the effort appears to have been better that quarter.

Northern 5 - 9 - 39
Geelong 13 - 9 - 87

GOALS: Tutt, Strachan, Viojo-Rainbow, Whiley, Curnow.

DISPOSALS: Dick 24, Wilson 23, Jaksch 18, Tutt 15, Kerbatieh 15, Whiley 14.

Wood takes a grab and converts.
I want to write this more often.

Four Geelong goals - from 2 missed tackles that were gettable, and some turnovers. Frustrating. We seem to have dropped our bundle somewhat.

Big mark to Clem Smith, then a goal to Buckley.

Northern 58
Geelong 125

Goal to Jones. But then Geelong reply.

It was Jones' 100th VFL goal.

All over and that is the best you can say about it.
Northern Blues 8 - 11 - 59
Geelong 19 - 11 - 125

That isn't very good, but especially not after 3 decent quarters last week. Nor is there a lot t be positive about. I am sure those present will give us their opinions. Just don't expect them to be positive.

DISPOSALS: Dick 29, Wilson 24, Tutt 22, Jaksch 21, Kerbatieh 20, Buckley 19.
