00:00 from him by Kurno at center half back for the Dragons. Trying to step through the
00:04 tackle, can forward he got the kick away somehow, spilt to Smith now to Collins
00:08 Sandhurst away on the broadcast side Collins inside the 50 looking for
00:12 Thornton how does it bounce for him bounces well Thornton slaps it onto the
00:16 pocket Shanongiri's there to mop up though so assured ball in hand for the
00:20 Storm then he's run down in a crunching tackle by Lee Coghlan. Hosking down
00:25 decisively to Stagg is wrapped up immediately by Gill. Hosking just brute
00:32 force in the middle of the ground he just tried to wrestle Brereton out of
00:35 the way at that contest and the Dragons get a handball inside the 50 Stagg will
00:41 it'll be downfield here and so the ball will be in the arm of Andy Collins Stagg
00:46 dealt with as he got the handball inside the 50 and Andy Collins will have the
00:51 first deliberate shot at goal he have to kick it from just inside the 50 slight
00:55 angle to the right. Yes Stagg as he does usually in and under and he got that
01:02 high tackle after he got rid of the ball. 17 goals on the season for Andy Collins
01:09 usually a good finisher from 45 meters out that is no exception and he gets
01:16 Sandhurst on the board at the Queen Elizabeth Oval Audley and the ball might
01:21 have just spilled out for a boundary throw in on that out of sight in fact
01:25 it'll be a ball up 1-3 place three behind 25 gone opening term you wouldn't
01:29 imagine it'll be a long quarter with the lack of goal kicking. Smith to Hood
01:35 it's sent half forward finds Collins the lone goal scorer out there who's got it
01:39 right at the top of the 50. Lockie Ratcliffe not too keen to give him the
01:44 ball back and Andy Collins very keen to accept a 50 meter penalty that wasn't on
01:47 offer and so Collins will go back and might have a ping with it maybe the
01:53 slight breeze at his back he'll have to kick from just forward of the center
01:59 square he's gone the tube it's an awkward spinning thing but it's done
02:04 enough Andy Collins from just outside the center square has launched an
02:13 absolute sack of a thing that's floated its way home. Collins right there with
02:17 Collins. Clossie's in there to rip it away from them both and a stoppage he's
02:22 an important inclusion as well for the storm is Daniel Clossie Norm. He is.
02:26 He's been dragged to the ground he'll get a free kick. He will get a free kick
02:30 yes he has got the free kick. He taps it on to Smith ball bounced a little bit
02:34 awkwardly for him but now the low kick inside forward 50 in fact came from
02:38 Keating back to Coghlan to Wharton into the pocket that Collins. Andy Collins is
02:44 marked he's 20 meters around he'll play on immediately for his third no he's
02:50 hit the behind post so it's floated all the way across the face of goal struck
02:55 the inside of the behind post and Luke Webb will take it on the last line for
02:59 the storm the margin still 12 the way of Sandhurst. It doesn't feel like storm
03:03 have got potency at the moment. Yes and we will be here calling that game but at the
03:07 moment we're calling this one Collins gets on the end of a ball is it half
03:10 forward probably too far to score swings on the left and he spots up Joel Wharton
03:16 who found some space and Joel Wharton who hasn't kicked a lot of goals this
03:19 year so far he's usually a known goal kicker. He kicked 8 Joel so I suppose I'd be
03:24 happy yeah if I kicked 8 for a season. He decides to play on. Forward 50 and he's
03:29 coughed it up he's kicked it straight down the throat of Blanthorne. He plays
03:34 on quickly sends it further afield to Radcliffe. Radcliffe down the opposite
03:39 side wing to where we're sitting now Connick getting involved. Carragher gave
03:42 him the handball long kick there. From the goal they attack the Dragons it will
03:46 be a ball in. 29 playing 18 24 minutes gone second term. Footy Fresh has been to go
03:51 football live. We're in luck on the barbecue steaks Johnny at half time just quietly.
03:54 All to be tossed back in. You're in the know are you Joel? Yeah. Pete Watson's looking after us.
04:00 They always do a great job here at Sandhurst very hospitable hosts at the
04:04 best footy ground in country. Jake McLean clever little tap to a running
04:09 Paul Pratt. He was running shotgun goes to Collins. Collins only 15 metres out
04:14 from goal deep in the pocket. He's got strength he's got composure puts it on
04:18 the boot and kicks it out of bounds. Wow everything right there. Paul Pratt now he
04:27 doesn't muck around he'll go inside forward 50 hard up against the boundary
04:31 line. Lee Coghlan come off his hands Andy Collins he roved it, sharked it, put it
04:35 goal would it was one of those clever little kicks that went goal wouldn't
04:39 went out of bounds again but everything seems right. He's too far out to score 70
04:44 out hard up against the boundary line short pass Collins off as a lead he hit
04:49 him kept his feet comes in board by hand to Paul Pratt goes between his legs now
04:55 Stormer under pressure.

07:12 Support hand balls it forward Keating Keating now got time and space good
07:17 ball it is to Collins hits him up Collins should have swallowed that he
07:20 normally would have 50 meters out from goal Wharton keeps it in play Paul just
07:24 bashes it to Joel Wharton that was really clever Wharton up to half forward
07:28 finds Collins Collins has got it 60 from goal looking for an option inside the 50
07:34 short lead from right looks that off now he squares it up looking for McLean
07:39 good mark from Mays stands in front for the storm able to intercept 40 meters
07:46 out from his defensive goal kick almost straight to stag lunging forward couldn't
07:51 drag it in Shishku is knocked away from him now it spills to Collins Collins to
07:56 the edge of the 50 finds Connick Connick's got it 48 from home flares his
08:02 kick to the pocket and the mark taken by right 20 meters out from the Dragons
08:08 goal he's a slight angle right of center for a field Cooper Smith is away off
08:12 halfback beautiful little drop step he freed up his teammate in Keating got it
08:17 to McLean now to Collins Collins out wide to Paul Pratt Dragons on the burst
08:22 he was dragged down by Blanford kick skewed away to right half forward
08:26 Collins comes across to try and pick it up he's got two storm players to beat
08:29 he's not going to come away cleanly with the ball and a ball up at right half
08:33 forward for the hearse first or a golden square I don't think so
08:36 here's Connick burst away at the stoppage tumbles a kick inside the
08:40 forward 50 bounce like a horrible thing over the head of Collins into the lap of
08:45 Helen and that's a lovely kick out wide from Ratcliffe beautifully waited onto
08:50 the chest of my quitting who's been I get to get on on the act on the score
08:53 sheet this afternoon Matt Thornton pulls that to the left he can be a streaky
09:00 kick at times and that was certainly demonstrated on that occasion margin
09:05 back to 39 points they're trading behinds here in the last couple of
09:10 forward 50 entries 813 to 210 margin 39 through 18 and a half minutes of the
09:17 last Blanford will bring it in for the storm the kicking from fullback he
09:22 played on and kicked it straight to Conforti turnover dragons standing at 51
09:26 meters he'll put it to the top of the square looking for Thornton all big fly
09:30 Collins has floated in front of the pack and those that can remember that was
09:35 Royce Hart style plays on poor checking storm goal Collins up I fell over and
09:42 did the splits he's called it a goal
