Richmond managed to kick 0.8 in a game against St.kilda in I think 1961 at the Punt Rd oval. The saints having a comfortable win on a cold winter's day.samuraisaint wrote: ↑Sun 17 Jun 2018 8:26pmI watched Bruce in the the Zebras match against Williamstown this afternoon. Fair to say he looked a bit rusty but never stopped trying. Poor and difficult conditions but the Zebras had 15 St. Kilda players in the side, failed to kick a single goal, thereby becoming the first team in 100 years in the VFA/VFL to achieve this dubious feat, and were the lowest scoring Zebras team in Sandringham's entire VFA/VFL history. Barring a calamitous injury run I think it's safe to say that anyone playing in the forward line for Sandy today will face a very long wait before they are considered for senior selection, particularly with Long and Acres still to return.The_President wrote: ↑Sun 17 Jun 2018 12:33am How do they fit Membrey, Bruce, Battle and Paddy in the one forward line?
In the last quarter Willy kicked 8.5 to 0.1!
I'll bet the Sandy supporters are so very happy with our alignment right now.
Player development anyone

Re: Josh Battle
Battle is not a big key forward so may struggle against the better fullbacks early on in his career until he learns his craft. A good sign for the future. I would give Josh Bruce another year . See how he goes in 2019 fully fit and give it a red hot go, he is a top footballer when he is on song and proven 50 goals a year player and is only 26. He is in the "experienced " group of players so must stay. He may squeeze in 6/7 games this year.
