Guys like Lachy Howe and Indovino must be close to being on some clubs' draft radar?

Throw-in 50 from home.

Gault vs Lucey, Gault knocks it down, roved full-tilt by Indovino, scrambles a kick to the goal square, bouncing, tumbling, GOING, through for a GOAL!

This is half-court football ... played entirely in our forward half.

As good as this is, we should probably have 2 more goals from easy misses.

Sexton under pressure from Gray, kicks it out on the full.

Smith, 50 out on the Ryder side, sets it to the hotspot, Cox sets himself, flies, hands to it... AND TAKES THE MARK!!!

From 20, DIF... GOAL!!!

35-0

Good point.

We're statistically, from memory, the best 1st quarter team in the comp, but we fade as the game grinds on, so we really need to be cashing in...
