Sandy Vs Williamstown -results and reports

[maverick]

maverik, do you mean Stanley? Not Cahill?

"Cahill is definitely a goer, and has that agro a ruckman needs... "

Definitely meant Stanley, thanks for that

[Con Gorozidis]

How'd Jack go?

Great to see Stanley BOG. Plucked him out of nowhere on draft day and he sounds like an awesome prospect.

Stanley was playing senior sanfl last year. so not exactly plucked from nowhere.

im amazed he got through to pick 50 or whataver after senior sanfl at 18 as a ruckmen.

either way. awesome piece of recruiting saints. looking forward to 10 years mcevy/stanley partnership.

[Armoooo]

Stanley as the classical ruckman with Mcevoy playing second fiddle whilst rotating between the ruck, bench and forward line.

Sounds like a very promising duo

Every Time I look at the vfl reserves best Tungatalum Is there Surely He'll Get a Game With The Sandy Seniors Soon?

[saintbrat]

be interested to know who chooses the best for the official results page?

Steven had several shots at goal before he finally snared one- maybe trying to groom him as a small forward. Geary did well- yet not in best;

[ace]

Ball played midfield and did some goo things.

I would say the reason he was dropped is that he just stands there after he has had a disposal and does not move to the next contest.

I only realised this after being able to concentrate on him solely today.
He is very static after a disposal. Don't know why, he looks fit enough.

Can't see him coming back in a hurry after today.

Goose okay but not up to AFL standard. I have been told that he will get a game before the finals.

Melbourne will be tanking in the last round and giving Riewoldt a weeks rest before the finals would be a good idea.

[plugger66]

It is now comfirmed that the best in the paper for Sandy bear no relation to how well people played.

Williamstown: Nil

How is it possible for anyone to get reported for charging Muir.
I thought it was an old VFL rule that mad dog Muir always got reported for doing the charging.
But then I m getting old and my memory is getting hazy.

[zebraman]

Great win for Sandy which keeps the season alive. Unfortunately I wasn't able to see the game as I am stuck in Frankston Hospital following a motor bike accident on Friday afternoon. I rang the club after the game and the guy I spoke to had Tom Lynch as best for Sandy followed by Peter Summers then Luke Ball. 1st game I've missed for years. Will miss a few more.

Go zebras. Go saints

drive carefully and be aware of motor bikes on the road. I'm very lucky to be alive let alone writing this

All the best and a quick recovery so you can come back and watch the Zs in the finals.

On the game today, not surprised by Stanley doing well. Anyone who saw his video prior to the draft must have seen a talented player, not just a tall ruck. So lucky we picked him up.

The commentators spoke highly of Tregear up forward too and saw him as a potential rookie selection. Interested to know if Plugger noticed him play and had any thoughts on his potential.

Looks like 2010 should be a big year for Lynch, Tungatalum and Stanley if they do enough over summer and put on the required kilos.

Tregear played well but is a bit small for the afl as he doesnt seem to have the pace needed for a player of his size and bulk.

Sandy keeps its finals hopes alive
By Lewis Mulvey

Sandringham kept its finals hopes alive with a 26 point victory over top-side Williamstown.

The match remained in the balance until the 22 minute mark of the final term, when Shane Tregear drilled a brilliant goal to put his side up by seven points. From then on, the Zebras went into Showtime mode, adding a series of great goals, the best being an audacious snap by Tom Paterakis from around 40 metres out.

Before blowing out in the final stages (ironically the result of a subtle but decisive easterly breeze), the match was a hard-fought battle in which both sides found it hard to score freely. While Sandringham seemed to be having trouble with their skills early on, Williamstown struggled with their forward entries, and the match remained goalless for some time before Xavier Gotch finally broke the deadlock for Williamstown. The Seagulls looked good from then on, with Wayde Skipper and Chris Egan providing strong marking targets around the ground and Ben Jolley getting plenty of the ball in midfield. But with his side down by two goals, Luke Ball got Sandringham back in touch with a fierce tackle deep in his own forward line that led straight to a Nick Sautner goal, before Tregear kicked another to put the Zebras in front. Patrick Rose then goaled for Williamstown right on the quarter time siren, and so the Seagulls went into the first break holding a three point lead.

The second quarter remained a cagey affair with the sides appearing to be evenly matched, highlighted by the ruck duel between Skipper and Rhys Stanley, who were both great for their respective sides. Williamstown’s Dean Galea was beginning to dominate up forward, but was let down at times by his finishing, although he produced a number of match highlights with his hard attack on the ball and strong marking.

Kicking with the wind in the third term and trailing by seven points, Williamstown knew they had to produce a good quarter of football. Both sides threw themselves at each other for long periods and the duel between Sandringham half-forward Tom Lynch and his opponent Andrejs Everitt was a fierce affair, with Lynch vital for the Zebras as a marking target across half forward. In the closing stages of the term, Galea kicked a brilliant checkside goal to put Williamstown seven points ahead, before Sandy responded with a slick piece of interplay that put a smile on the faces of the many present St Kilda fans – Ball to Lynch, Lynch to Steven, Steven to Sautner, goal. Not to be outdone, Galea responded sharply with another strong mark and conversion.

Despite being seven points down at three quarter time, Sandringham looked a real chance coming home with the breeze, and midfielders Jarryn Geary, David Armitage, Peter Summers and Luke Ball all found a lot of the ball. Andy Biddlecombe came back onto the ground after appearing to be injured and took a number of relieving defensive marks. And with the game in the balance, Geary became a decisive factor, winning the ball all over the ground and displaying great skill in his footpassing. His ferocious tackle and goal from outside 50 to bring the Zebras level raised the cheers and beers of the ‘Sautner Stand’ and provided the goal of the day.
