00:00Doubles to half forward, Ferugia couldn't gather, Russell could, forced to release the ball by hand, got it to Walker, tumbling kick forward, ground ball opportunity, shark by Davis, got onto his leg, kicked it across the body, Slater lunging forward, just marked the ball, just centimetres off the ground, and wasted no time, poor kick, kicked it out of bounds on the full, ambitious kick.
00:22So it'll be Ferugia, with a shot on goal, with a run against that plate, Slater would want that kick over again, just a little careless with his execution, on a tricky day in fairness.
00:43So Ferugia, uses the breeze, bends it back, and he's got it done! Ferugia, he's had a good game, and he's back, Ferugia!
00:55Ferugia will go back and have a shot on goal here just ahead of the halftime siren, 34 minutes gone, and a chance for a fifth goal of the term for the Bloods, a second goal for him personally, and a chance for the Bloods to get their biggest lead of the game.
01:19Of course, East Point led by 23 in that opening term, and I was to go as far as to say East Point were one goal shy of what I thought to be a fair tally from that opening term, with the breeze, Ferugia makes no mistake, and the Bloods are seven points up here at Daly Park.
01:43Ikata to Hickey, release the hand pass to Mawson, left foot kick, goes out in the Ferugia direction, and he's got it! Ferugia's jugging it well in the air, and he's just shown his versatility again this afternoon, forward back in the ruck, take your pick, he's quite a handy player, just when you think you've got the Bloods covered, Ferugia bobs up.
02:06So, a chance here to narrow the margin to two points, and Ferugia a chance to kick his third goal, of course he kicked three goals against the Devils last week.
02:16He'll shoot here to narrow the margin, 11 and a half minutes gone, final term, deliberate approach, leans on the kick, and it's home! The Bloods are within two points here at Daly Park.
