BFL Wash Up Round 9

01 June 2022

Ocean Grove vs Barwon Heads

Ocean Grove was abysmal last weekend. They normally come into each game with a fighting attitude but Barwon Heads made minced meat of them.

The Seagulls have been one of the top sides all year, but there still seems to be a gap between Barwon Heads and the top two titans on the ladder.

They will meet Modewarre for the second time this season on Saturday. Ocean Grove will need to go back to basics as they look to Queenscliff as their next opposition.

Best

Ocean Grove: J. Horton, J. Paterson, F. Keck, G. Campbell, T. Chalkley, D. Moroney

Barwon Heads: B. Eddy, K. Polley, A. Walsgott, K. Maher, M. Phelps, M. Beckwith

Goals

Ocean Grove: 4 J. Paterson, 2 J. Horton, J. McHenry

Barwon Heads: 3 S. Baker, 3 M. Phelps, 2 B. Eddy, J. Barlow, N. McGregor-Dawson, A. Walsgott, O. Wiltshire, C. Walter

Final Score

Ocean Grove: 7.8 (50)

Barwon Heads: 13.9 (87)

Portarlington vs Modewarre

It seems the new average for defeating Portarlington, is well over 200 points. Modewarre came in and steamrolled their opponents by 218 points.

The Warriors have used Portarlington as a training drill, but it's on to more serious competition this weekend. Barwon Heads is a game ahead, but the Warriors will be keen to knock them back to an even playing field. The Demons have a David vs Goliath scenario when they meet Drysdale. 

Best

Portarlington: K. Goedemoed, T. Benham, M. Ruiter, J. Muscat, B. Wells, S. Wiffen

Modewarre: C. Joseph, T. Hornsey, M. McKim, Callan Farrell, Damon Hemphill, Joshua Finch

Goals

Portarlington: 2 J. Muscat, J. Benjamin, B. Wells

Modewarre: 10 C. Joseph, 7 A. Black, 7 T. Hornsey, 6 T. Worpel, 4 P. Fitzgerald, 2 C. Farrell, M. McKim, B. Wemyss

Final Score

Portarlington: 4.4 (28)

Modewarre: 38.14 (246)

 

Queenscliff vs Anglesea

The unstoppable force met the immovable object last Saturday. The Coutas came out guns blazing, but Anglesea did not go away. They fought tooth and nail to get back into the contest, and the result was a draw.

Queenscliff would love to replay that game. Unfortunately, time goes on, and Ocean Grove is their next stop. The Roos have some spring in their step lately, but they will need to pull out every trick in the book to beat Torquay.

Best

Queenscliff: Z. Henderson, T. Dickinson, J. Durran, T. Limb, A. Davie

Anglesea: J. Moverley, J. Harrison, R. Williams, T. Leeds, E. Floyd, B. Jaska

Goals

Queenscliff: 7 J. Durran, 3 T. Dickinson, 2 L. Kidd, T. Limb, J. McIvor-Clark, C. Whitley

Anglesea: 4 J. Harrison, 3 R. Williams, L. Beers, A. Caldwell, L. Cruickshank, D. Elliott, E. Floyd, B. Jaska, M. Simpson, S. Umbers

Final Score

Queenscliff: 15.10 (100)

Anglesea: 15.10 (100)

 

Torquay vs Geelong Amateur

Geelong Amateurs had a test in Torquay last Saturday, and like so many others, they failed to impress the Tigers. An 81 point beat down, was the result.

One could easily see this Tigers rampage going on until Round 14 when they meet Drysdale. For now, Anglesea is their next target. The Ammos will look to bounce back against Newcomb.

Best

Torquay: C. Currie, B. Henderson, L. Findlay, M. Croxford, J. Darke, S. Ham

Geelong Amateur: B. Barnett, G. Hardiman, S. Darley, C. Lewis, K. Bucovaz, L. Cogan

Goals

Torquay: 4 P. McMahon, 4 B. Raidme, 3 C. Currie, 3 C. Heard, 2 J. Darke, 2 S. Ham, 2 J. Ireland, T. Grace, J. Dawson

Geelong Amateur: 4 K. Bucovaz, 2 L. Reilly, L. Crichton, S. Darley, S. Hosking, J. Jans

Final Score

Torquay: 22.14 (146)

Geelong Amateur: 10.5 (65)

 

Newcomb vs Drysdale

The Hawks are still undefeated and still causing opposition coaches headaches. Although Drysdale started off slow in the first term, they unleashed a barrage of goals for the rest of the game.

Drysdale could not have a bigger advantage this upcoming weekend. They face Portarlington at Drysdale where the best meets the worst. Newcomb will match up against the Ammos, but Power will have the home ground advantage. 

Best

Newcomb: M. Walson, F. Anscombe, P. McGinley, B. Rees, S. Scolaro, R. Jackman

Drysdale: F. Chisholm, J. Jenkins, B. Fennell, L. Dalgleish, B. Sykes, M. Mcguire

Goals

Newcomb: J. Duke, O. Marshall

Drysdale: 3 M. Gunn, 3 J. Hargreaves, 3 M. Hebbard, 3 B. Sykes, 2 J. Breust, B. Fennell, M. Mcguire

Final Score

Newcomb: 2.6 (18)

Drysdale: 16.17 (113)
