SportsTranscript
00:00 Bendigo here's the powerhouse, Campower.
00:02 Underway, round two, Bendigo footy league.
00:06 Blake and Sexton both went up, bounced and Sexton got it on the second tap.
00:11 Walsh immediately onto the footy, flies the handball out to Stagg, now it comes wide.
00:15 Dragons will get the first inside, forward 50.
00:18 Playing behind and Gisborne are able to punch but it doesn't clear very well.
00:22 Good defence in there, that was Huio which is absolutely bathed in sunshine.
00:25 We're two minutes into this one, Sandhurst one goal, Gisborne yet to score.
00:28 Umpire off roading, true centre wing, broadcasts side, up the hole goalie in the rucks.
00:32 Sexton won it, to the front of the pack, trying to don't argue there for the dogs.
00:36 But Johnson might be a free kick, it will be.
00:39 And we don't usually give the reserve scorer but we will, thanks to Richards Jones out at the Meribah again.
00:45 Kangaroo flat, 35-21, 231 kangaroo flat to Meribah, did not bother the scorer.
00:52 So let's hope that's not what happens this afternoon in the scene game.
00:56 Dragons have it on.
00:58 Macklin-Lord for the Bulldogs, ball up, Blake wins it down.
01:02 Blakey's got it, handball's back to Spear, hard up against the boundary line.
01:07 Thought about kicking down the line but decides I'm happy to take this one over the boundary.
01:10 And will get it thrown in, 60 out from home, good hot contest there.
01:14 Ball thrown in, Maxfaird, he takes it out of the ruck, feeds off the handball to Tardew.
01:21 Tardew then handball wide, trying to find their way through, he got it back.
01:25 Tardew throws it on the boot towards goal, he might have kicked it.
01:28 Definitely damp, there's plenty of space out there on the QEO too, which is naturally, it's a big ground.
01:33 But there's a lot of room, there's a lot of room for Sandwich to move the footy at the moment.
01:36 So I'm sure Gisborne's coaching staff will be watching that.
01:39 No one really in the centre of the ground, majority players taking on the far side.
01:42 Again, Maxfaird goes up, takes it out of the ruck, flies off the handball.
01:46 Gisborne able to win it, they'll send it into the middle of the ground.
01:48 Now they've got that long kick wide, the kick bounces nicely.
01:51 They've got one out the back if they can find the way through, they can.
01:54 It's taken nicely by Lux.
01:56 Plays on from full back, sends it swinging full side.
02:00 They'll set themselves back of the pack.
02:02 Big fly it was by Spear, couldn't quite drag it in.
02:05 Now up half back, the Dragons, we're seeing them do it a lot this afternoon.
02:08 Down, going in hard for Gisborne and winning it will be Bernacchi.
02:12 Haven't heard too much of his name as of yet.
02:15 There goes down the line.
02:17 Big pack of players will dive on top of this one.
02:20 The umpires have been happy to let the boys play so far today, Jase.
02:23 Yeah, they have been, Cam and Tex.
02:25 Ball goes into the hands of the umpire out there.
02:29 Throws the ball back up, center wing position.
02:31 Full side here at the QEO.
02:34 Kick is partially smothered, Blake's in there.
02:36 So too Walsh, Gisborne and Getit work it forward.
02:38 That was Jackson Cardillo.
02:40 He's bouncing forward.
02:41 Do it all again, 40 out from goal.
02:43 Gisborne trail, two behinds.
02:45 It's in their forward zone to 14, 22 minutes gone, opening turn.
02:50 See if we can clear it out.
02:53 It's a free kick for a high tackle in there,
02:55 which is going to go the way of the Dragons.
02:58 They'll win and be able to clear it out of defense.
03:02 Handball layoff to the run of Walsh.
03:04 He chips down the poolside wing.
03:06 Finds a teammate, far side of the QEO.
03:11 Lots of options back in the middle.
03:13 Wheels around on the right and then descends it down the line.
03:15 But it's going to be an intercept mark and relatively easy intercept.
03:19 (Indistinct chatter)
03:22 Knock around, well, it did knock around for quite a while
03:24 and he threw it high in the air.
03:26 Plenty for the coming to play and now they have a stoppage.
03:28 So not reaching any dizzy heights when it comes to a spectacle.
03:32 That's what this next goal of this game is going to be absolutely crucial.
03:35 Goals are pretty hard to come by,
03:37 which is certainly going against my prediction of a real high-scoring affair
03:40 this afternoon so far.
03:44 Ball goes back to the bottom of the pack
03:46 and again we'll get another ball up.
03:50 Max Webb went down in the ruck contest.
03:55 He's been trying to find a way out late.
03:57 He's got it.
03:59 The umpires are getting their money's worth this afternoon in terms of ball up.
04:02 They'd be well on their way to tipping that box this afternoon.
04:05 You know what a KPI is, Ken.
04:07 Don't ask me why that surprises me,
04:09 but it does surprise me a little that the docs through Harry Thomas
04:12 cops it up, gave it to Konick.
04:14 Konick of the drag, he'll go to the goal squeep.
04:16 Probably didn't look.
04:17 3-2-20 to Donald, 3-1-19.
04:20 And there is an evening game, 6 o'clock start.
04:23 Ball goes up.
04:26 He's going to try and work it forward.
04:29 Happening is there, Joe?
04:30 No, it's quite a frustrating game.
04:32 You're just waiting for something to happen.
04:34 Lots of stoppages after stoppage.
04:36 I think both coaches would be relatively happy though at the moment.
04:40 Got a rugby feeling about it there.
04:42 Yeah, it has.
04:43 Exactly.
04:44 I think they've got enough in the kicker.
04:46 It looked like an under-12 game with all the kids around the footy,
04:48 didn't it?
04:49 Ball up.
04:51 Panacchi's in there for Kisbun.
04:53 He went in for the tackle,
04:56 and he's going to get a free kick for a high tackle.
05:00 Might have been a little bit lucky to get that one, I think, Panacchi,
05:02 but he has it.
05:05 He's a terrific user of the footy.
05:07 Can he do something for his Kisbun side?
05:10 On the right foot.
05:11 It's a low ball inside forward 50.
05:13 No mark taken.
05:14 Fills around the bottom of the pack.

07:30 [unclear dialogue]
07:34 [whistle blows]
07:36 Towards the wing.
07:37 Hits the pack hard.
07:38 It was knifed by Dennehy.
07:40 This is Zach.
07:41 Zach on left half back.
07:42 Ran into a bit of trouble.
07:43 He had no awareness of, well, three dragons around him
07:47 causes a turnover.
07:49 Handball ended up with Paul Pratt.
07:50 He goes inside forward.
07:51 Will be taken by Hannaford.
07:53 Olly Hannaford's got it.
07:55 70 out from home.
07:56 He chips short.
07:57 Nice little control kick to Stagg.
07:59 So Stagg's got it.
08:01 60 metres out from goal.
08:03 He's not backing himself in from here, is he?
08:06 No.
08:07 He chips it off into the lead.
08:08 Oh, coming hard at it.
08:10 Couldn't quite get to Fergus Green.
08:12 Gisborne able to float back into the hole
08:14 and take the intercepting mark.
08:15 Kick comes wide.
08:18 Not his greatest kick.
08:19 Walsh is there.
08:20 Direction of Ainsworth.
08:22 A loose possession here.
08:24 Ends up with the dragons.
08:26 Handball to the back door.
08:28 Went to Maxstead.
08:31 Kicks it forward.
08:32 Mark's been taken by Stagg,
08:34 who's been relatively quiet now of the dragons.
08:36 He goes into the pocket.
08:37 They'll set themselves.
08:39 Hands on foot, he was right.
08:41 Hurried kick now to the goal square,
08:43 but there's no one home.
08:44 And it's Reaper of the Dogs.
08:46 He's in contention for the $100 voucher
08:48 from our sponsor also.
08:50 Gisborne in attack late in the third quarter.
08:54 Braden Blake wins it down.
08:56 Bernacchi lurking, couldn't quite take it.
08:58 Sanders work it forward.
09:00 So he's made a difference out of the goal square down here.
09:03 They seem to have moved their forward line a little bit.
09:05 Fergus Green's come up a bit higher.
09:07 And they've gone with, you know, you've got Tardew
09:09 and Wharton down deep.
09:10 And even Green with that bit of play,
09:12 it'll sound like I'm knocking Green,
09:14 but he was a bit fumbly in that bit of play, wasn't he?
09:16 Yep, he was off.
09:17 Hot or cold, because it is going to be a cracking last quarter.
09:19 Ball goes up and no one able to really take any clean possession.
09:24 So we'll get a secondary ball up now.
09:27 Blakey's been in there for the Dogs.
09:29 He was a little bit quieter in that third quarter,
09:31 but he was terrific in the first half.
09:34 So the question has been asked,
09:36 do the Gisborne Bulldogs have an answer to get themselves back in this game?
09:39 Blake wins it down, then tried to fend off the tackle.
09:41 Might be in a bit of trouble.
09:42 Umpire lets him go, managed to find it out.
09:45 Blakey, high ball inside, forward 50.
09:47 Have a ball up, 67 playing 52.
09:49 Five minutes gone, final term.
09:51 Local footy leaves it, fresh bendigo.
09:54 So it'll be thrown in inside, forward 50.
10:00 Sanders' player went to ground,
10:03 took a Gisborne player with him by the looks,
10:04 and it's going to be a free kick for a hole.
10:06 So Braden Blake has possession of the ball.
10:09 Ball out for the Dragons.
10:11 Picked up by Harrison Freight, bangs it forward.
10:14 Now they go one way then the other.
10:15 Stag's got it.
10:16 Stag sends it into the hot spot,
10:17 and he's just found a teammate.
10:18 All on his own out the back.
10:20 Rolling into goal will be Pelkwright.
10:24 The outer side wing, 73 playing 52.
10:27 Seven gone, final term.
10:29 Local footy leaves, at the fresh bendigo.
10:33 Ball up on the far wing.
10:36 What have Gisborne got?
10:38 Blakey going through.
10:40 Bubbles burst because the bloods have kicked away at Harry Trott.
10:42 119 to 83.
10:46 That is a little bit of an awl, isn't it?
10:48 Back to the drawing board by the looks of it.
10:50 Hopefully it's not another fouls.
10:53 Outer side, swimming bull's side.
10:56 Big punch from behind from Sexton.
10:59 Doing the majority of the work for the Dragons.
11:02 Throwing his head back was Blakey for the Gisborne.
11:04 I reckon the umpires bought it for one two-eye.
11:07 Certainly wasn't to that extent.
11:10 Goes to Dennehy.
11:12 Dennehy.
11:13 Well, he was confident.
11:14 Sanders players were already manning the market.
11:16 The umpire called him to goal.
11:17 He was taken.
11:18 And the Dragons, they went out.
11:20 Short kick Joel Wharton.
11:21 He's quick to move the ball down the line to another teammate.
11:24 I thought he might have had all hands on that one there, Jase.
11:26 I thought it was clean, but umpire's call.
11:29 The umpire's the one you've got to impress sometimes.
11:32 Nick Stagg gets it.
11:33 Sends it inside, forward 50, trying to get a fly.
11:35 Spills out the back.
11:36 Green's got it.
11:37 He's tackled as he kicked it.
11:39 If he didn't get that tackle, he was kicking a goal.
11:41 But it was good defensive pressure from the Dogs.
11:44 Out of the middle by the Dragons.
11:46 But they kicked it up forward and Dennehy intercepted now for the Dogs.
11:50 Kicks it to the wing.
11:51 They're out here now.
11:52 The Dogs.
11:53 It's Johnson.
11:54 Takes a bounce.
11:55 Goes inside because they know to shut down.
11:57 The only way they're going to lose is if they go to sleep.
11:59 That's correct.
12:00 That's the only way they can lose it.
12:01 And that's taking nothing away from the Dogs who have been gallant at times.
12:04 But they just haven't done enough.
12:05 But having said that, they're going to win it out of the middle.
12:07 What's going to happen here?
12:08 Inside, forward 50.
12:10 Early days yet.
12:11 Let's not hit the panic button.
12:13 But back to the drawing board for Michael Hartley and his magpies.
12:17 As other final scores come through.
12:21 I'll get them to you.
12:22 But it doesn't look like there's many close ones at the moment.
12:24 As Stagg wins it.
12:26 They'll share it around, ending it up with Walsh.
12:29 Walsh of the Dragons kicks it to the wing.
12:31 Will they have enough time?
12:33 Long kick.
12:34 Turnover now.
12:35 Ends up with the Dogs.
12:37 Reaper.
12:38 Handball over the top.
12:39 Schapano getting involved.
12:41 Jed Dennehy.
12:43 Long kick.
12:45 He'd given that ball to Schapano.
12:46 He kicked it to the wing.
