Having to play catch up football all day, a late fourth quarter goal by Scott Cummings saw Williamstown level the scores against Sandringham today.
The visitors, however, were able to regroup and kick a late goal and this saw them run out winners, 13.14.92 to 12.13.85.
It was mostly good luck rather than good play that saw Williamstown lead at 3/4 time, as their disposal left a lot to be desired. It seemed that Sandringham had prepared for Williamstown's play-on mode of play, with far too many turnovers - one handball too many, with most missing their mark, short passes being cut off, kicking without looking - proving to be their downfall.
The loss sees Williamstown slide down to ninth, on percentage. The next match is in two weeks, hosting Bendigo Diggers. A win, and a big one at that, is an absolute must.
Score:
Will: 2.2.14 5.3.33 9.7.61 12.13.85
Sand: 3.3.21 6.9.45 7.12.54 13.14.92
Goals: Cummings 3, Corcoran, Davidson, Dooley, Fletcher, Kinnear, Lovett-Murray, Podsiadly, Scotland, Swan.
Best: Fletcher, Scotland, Dooley, Pearce.
