Clever underground handpass in traffic, out to Gray, sets it to FF, Gault unsurprisingly caught behind, but manages to get a fist in to knock it down, Indovino in prime position, crumbs, snaps and GOALS!!!

70-18

Frost still off?

Apparently Ferguson done for the day and Oxley gone to MCG.

He is indeed!

Didn't rate him from what I saw in the pre-season, but he's had a terrific couple of weeks...

Frost did come back on.

Ferguson out with a calf...

Cox marks 45 out DIF, but decides to play on, baulks, THROWS IT ON THE BOOT... misses...

Likely goal gone begging...

71-18

Box Hill (10th) leading Footscray (7th) by 30 for those interested.

Cheers, MM.

Not surprising, really, given the Doggies' injuries. There will be a minute silence and the playing of the Last Post after the game.

Meanwhile, behind to them...

71-19

And might be worse now ... no Mitch Honeychurch today and Kieran Collins hurt his shoulder.

Umpire holds the ball aloft to start proceedings in the final term at Victoria Park.

Collingwood by 52 points, but we've had lean final quarters for most of this year, and we are down to 3 on the bench (Oxley to the MCG, Ferguson to the infirmary).

Can we steer this one home? Let's find out!

Nice grab Wyatt on centre wing, from the Kelly kick.

Kicks long to HF, over the head of his intended target, Collopy third in line picks it up, quick handpass off to Kelly who kept on running, the ex Hawk and ex Bulldog sets sail for home from 50... it wasn't touched on the line was it...?

NO! GOAL!

77-19

Ouch.

Oh well, one less of the chasing pack to worry about...
