00:00 The umpire holds the ball off. 2023 is about to get underway here at the Killio.
00:05 Who will win the first tap? Koskin got it down. Geary got the first kick. Little one out towards
00:10 half. Big crowd in attendance. Umpire will throw it in. We're only 15 meters around from goal.
00:16 Golden Square looking to get the first one on the board. Hosking grabs it out of the air. How many
00:20 times is he going to do that? He gave it up and he gave it to Barrett of the Dogs. It goes goalward
00:25 and will be a saving mark on the line. In fact it is the first score of the grand final. One behind
00:30 Golden Square lead Sanders. The grand ten and Ellie's got the job on Joel Brett. Ball thrown
00:36 back in. Center wing. Grandstand. Off the pack and forward. He got the ball smothered by Hartley. He
00:41 got a quick handball back by Coghlan. Kick into the middle. Had to bring it back into into play.
00:46 Big crowd on the outer side. He throws it in. Compton and Hamish Hoskin. Hoskin gets the tap
00:53 down. Hits his teammate. Puts it over the boundary line. Left half forward. Golden Square in attack.
00:58 Yes that was a poor start to start that first ball up of the game. It was Bryce Kurnow that
01:05 had the ball and usually would make a better fist of it. Ball out of the back. There. Hoskin got the
01:10 quick kick away. Picked up there. Nally he couldn't get it out of the pack. Another scrubbing ball
01:16 inside forward. 50. One on one. They've had their opportunities. They've had it inside forward. 50.
01:21 It's the Dogs who have capitalized. Back in the middle. Hoskin wins the tap. No clear winner
01:26 through Sanders. In fact it was a turnover. Struck out of the box with a quick and early lead. Alex
01:30 Wharton played on for the Dragons from the kick in from fullback. Hoskin collects. Handball was
01:35 effective. Goes to Stag. Stag to half forward. Burke. Dogs in attack. There'll be Hoskin for the
01:41 Dragons in the ruck against Compton. Compton front position. Got muscled there by Hoskin.
01:46 Doesn't need to get in a contest like that when he needs to work. Almost midway through this
01:50 opening term. Footy Fresh is Bendigo. Grand final football live. Ball in the air. Hoskin wins it
01:57 down. Who should be first there? Barrett's there. Barrett. Just minute mark here. It is 16 plays
02:03 zero. The Dragons yet to score. Footy Fresh is Bendigo football live. Hoskin. Compton tried to
02:07 muscle him and then bursting through the plaque was Barrett. Marking penalty. Swung around onto
02:13 his left foot and spotted up Thornton perfectly. Ball back in the middle. Hoskin wins it down.
02:19 Hartley through the middle of the ground for the Dogs. Kicks it inside. Attack again here
02:23 at the QEO. Right in that South Bendigo social rooms pocket. Umpire throws it in. Up they'll go.
02:28 Hoskin using his body. He's doing well. Ground level. Compton picked it up though. 16 plays six.
02:34 20 minutes gone. We just tick into red time here in the 2023 BFL Grand Final. Umpire Baxter throws
02:41 it in there. It was Hoskin who wins the tack for the Dragons. Dragons said nothing in it and
02:46 eventually he'll say I'll ball it up. It wasn't Ireland. It might have been Wharton. Yeah. Who was
02:53 the last man up. Deep in the forward zone. Dogs attacking in the forward pocket. Ball goes to
03:01 halfback. It was a hurry kick from the Dragons. McLean getting involved. Hands on the footy.
03:05 He hits Andy Collins. The mark. Well it wasn't paid. It was called a play. Day Wicks and once
03:11 again Day Wicks has been the assister to the goal kicker. Ball back in the middle. Hoskin taps it
03:18 down but it went straight down the throat of Tomer. He gave it a little ball it up right on the arc of
03:23 50. Slightly into attack for the Dogs. Hat hit down by Hoskin. Quick hands out from his. From
03:32 fullback. Kicks it in. He thumps it long. It's a 60 meter ball. They'll set themselves. Wilkinson
03:37 got high for the Dragons. Hoskin a neat little handball. Did very well to Paul Pratt. Short pass
03:42 Lee Coghlan. Handball forward to a running Jake McLean. He's run on. Had his experience there to
03:47 be at the base of the pack. Yeah he did well. Ran around the back. Ball back in the middle. Hoskin
03:52 wins it down towards Conforti. He's tapped. Can't quite get a handle on it. Went biting Jack Geary.
03:57 Like a horse in the middle of the ground at that stage under the tackle. And the umpires said give
04:02 it a man. I'll ball it up. Hoskin wins it down again. Conforti was there. He waited for the
04:06 tackle this time. Then he runs and he gets in the contest. In fact the ball bounced. So it was
04:12 probably even in the end. Ball spills to Lee Coghlan. By hand gives it to the Dragons. Hoskin.
04:17 He'll go inside forward 50. Turn over. Shelton. Shelton handballs it towards the boundary line.
04:23 And it's on. It's on Norm. I'll watch the fight. You do the commentary. They're coming from
04:28 everywhere. And it's in the on the 50 underneath the side. As the umpire holds it aloft. The
04:34 Ruckman gets set for the second quarter. Up is Compton and Hoskin. Hoskin wins the tap down. Ball
04:40 comes to ground level. Picked up there by Noah Walsh. Set up. Conforti. There's uh two. He's
04:46 going to Geary. Just trying to break the tag. Well Hoskin took it out of the Ruck and then fumbled it.
04:52 Picked up by Toma who didn't. Positions but just couldn't couldn't break it and get the tackle
04:57 or get the ball out to them. Ball thrown in the air. Hoskin wins it down. Taps it forward. There's
05:02 a ball. Ball about to be thrown back in. Hoskin, Compton. Compton playing very well at the moment.
05:10 Hoskin gets the tap down but he puts it straight in front of the running man of Hickman. He runs.
05:14 Handle. Let it go. The umpire does. Stepping up in the tackle. Two players. But eventually Toma
05:21 brings his opponent to the ground. Nick Stagg gets up last and hands the ball off to the umpire. The
05:27 A grade netball is underway. Four goal margin. Gisborne lead Sandhurst four to zero. It is Paul
05:34 Pratt now on the outer side. Win for the Dragons. He'll kick it up to the one place twenty. The
05:39 Dogs lead at the 13 minute mark of the second quarter. Dragons inside forward fifty. Throw in.
05:45 Hoskin tried to grab it out of the air and can't. Tries to make a path. He's stagged. It is on his
05:49 hands and knees and 30 out from the goal that Sandhurst are attacking. It'll be a ball up.
05:55 It's another stoppage. Hoskin tapped it to his feet. Hurried kick out of the pack. The ball is
06:00 just ping ponging around and ends up. It was Mills who was the last man up and the umpire said give
06:05 it a man. I'll ball it up. The Ruckman come in. Neither can get a tap. Well they did. Hoskin
06:10 gave it to their stag. He banged it on the boot. Put it inside forward fifty. Yeah John it got
06:16 through the players and onto a forehead. Umpire will throw it in now. Hoskin. He's winning the
06:22 strength battle at the moment. Not sure he's winning the Ruck battle overall. I think Compton's
06:26 breaking even with him at present. He's staying off him at the throw ups. Yeah which he needs to
06:31 do. Hoskin wins the tap again. Hurried kick out of the pack. Connick of the drag. Competition is
06:37 underway. The ball about to be thrown back in. Hoskin. Compton. Compton gets the front position.

06:55 Who can be first there. Kurno got there but the boundary line was. Brett up the field. We'll have
07:00 another stoppage. Back to one goal margin with Gisborne taking the lead over Sandhurst. So
07:05 that's going to be a seesawing battle in the netball all afternoon. It's been right on because
07:09 as we've seen when they allow the ball out both sides can transition quick. Ball thrown back in.
07:15 This time Hoskin wins it down and on the end of it Smith. Smith goes forward. He chips it and keeps
07:21 it low. Held on. Ball game. 23 minutes gone. Second quarter. The drag dogs lead here at the moment.
07:27 Umpire throws it in. Hoskin tries to grab it out of the air again. They converge on him because
07:32 they know what he's. One tackle he got through two. The third one was a trip as he tried to go over
07:38 the top and he then made no mistake. An interesting contest. Plenty of pressure by both sides.
07:44 Compton and Hoskin. Hoskin gets the big tap away. Who can come off the back? Paul Pratt did but
07:50 Hickman cut it off. Little handball out. Went to Lee Coghlan. He banged it on the boot. Put it inside
07:55 forward 50. But can get it out of the pack there. Monti up against Wharton. Ball up in the air again.
08:03 No one gets it. Geary comes through. He's tackled by Walsh. And give it to me and I'll start it again.
08:08 We've had three ball ups. The third one. They throw it in the air. Can someone get it out of
08:14 the pack this time? It is done by Hoskin. But right in front of the grandstand. No score in this third
08:19 quarter. We've been playing just on one minute. Umpire Goodridge comes into the side as a late
08:24 replacement this afternoon. Believe it or not Johnny Norton was injured. So he's got his chance.
08:28 Going in this third term is the Dogs by 11 at the moment. Umpire Goodridge throws it in the air again.
08:35 Knocked down this time by Hoskin. Went back to Genforty. He gave it back to. The ball out in front

09:24 Ground level. Hurried handball by Stag. Didn't. Wasn't really effective. Spills to the broadcast

09:40 to me and I'll ball it up. 60 metres out from the Dragons goal. Ball in the air. Coghlan got the
09:48 tap from Hoskin. Gave it back to Hoskin. He then couldn't get it out of the park. And brought to

10:10 themselves up. Hoskin got the tap away. Banged it down. But Monty's going to be the first man on

10:40 they're leading forwards are taking full advantage. Ball back in the middle. Ball thrown up. Hoskin
10:46 takes it out of the ruck. Gets the handball away. Only as far as Geary though. Jack Geary got pulled
10:50 up in the tackle from Lee Coghlan. And eventually and Smith. And eventually the umpire said. No give
10:56 it back to me. I'll throw it up again. Hoskin this time. Just gets rid of it. He gives it off

11:05 doesn't fumble. Gets hold of it. Bangs it back towards the centre of the ground. And the dogs

12:41 quarter of football. Contest on the wing now. It'll be a do to give away a free kick which he
12:46 didn't when Tommy Toma ducked into it. Experience tells in the grand final. Not only with the
12:52 players but with the umpires. And we'll have another stop. He just stags all tied up. Let's
12:57 see if we can get it out of here. Broadcast side wing. In front of the grandstand. Hoskin

16:38 and it was Daywix that was in position and took a great mark under difficult conditions. What a
16:44 pressure kick from a young player. Back in the middle now. Who is going to emerge? Which direction
16:49 to go? It's coming from. Looks like from his nose. Umpire now balls it up. Hosking fumbled the footy.

17:02 Umpire Baxter throws it in the air. Hosking tapped it into the direction of Daywix. Couldn't get a
17:07 foot on it. It might be in front. Footy Fresh has been to go football live. Ruckman set themselves
17:13 again. He throws it in the air. Neither Ruckman can get hold of it. Can Forty try to hit the pack

17:47 half minute mark of the final quarter. Approaching time on Golden Square lead this grand final.

19:00 Dogs. Ball pobbled out. Dragons got the numbers. 40 meters out directly in front from the Dragons
19:05 goal. What was he thinking? Why would you? It's a costly error at this stage in the game and Lee
19:11 Coghlan just came off and shaking his head. 48. And he will get up off the ground and give it back
19:17 to the umpire. Still inside the arc of 50. Hosking there this time. Big punch outside the pack.
19:24 Who can get on? Probably a 45 degree angle from goal. On the outer side. In the pocket. Big crowd.
19:30 Umpire Goodridge. Good tap by Hosking. Tries to give it to a dangerous area. Stop him.
