Practice Game #5 - Collingwood vs Bendigo at Gosch's Paddock

11:00am this Friday at the training track. (courtesy of the Essendon FC website, still to be officially confirmed)

Well, surprise! Despite having played the requisite number of four practice games, the Pies and the Bombers have obviously gotten together and organised one last hitout on our mutual bye weekend before the start of the VFL season (the AFL season, of course, starts this Saturday night up at Olympic Park between GWS and the Swans).

Here's hoping we get to see the likes of Tarrant, Wellingham, Johnson and Didak getting some miles into the legs before the party starts next Friday night week.

Over to you...

Predicting hail, always makes Gosch's Paddock a bit of a nightmare!

Pending on whether the club needs staff, I'll be there.

I hope the team is full of AFL guys as most of the VFL guys have jobs and need to work as footy is not a full time job for them.

2nd term underway...

Bendigo kick long into attack, but Wood sees it over for a rushed behind.

Pies 1.2.8
Bombers 0.1.1

Pies kicking to the railway/Swan Street end. Breeze generally blowing in that direction, but Mason describes it as "swirly"...

Pies turn it over at half back and Matt Little kicks the goal.

Pies 1.2.8
Bombers 1.1.7
