Hi Guys.

On behalf of 1611 AM I want to apologize for the drop-out during Sunday's Broadcast of the Coburg & Bendigo game.

We've had some tech problems the last 3 Sundays and to make it worse last Sunday we had our normal tech working for SEN that day and our Saturday Tech/Jack of all trades wasn't at Coburg for the 2nd half, having to set up for the Ice Hockey for it's 4.35pm broadcast.

As Murphy's law would have it, when he wasn't at Coburg we went off air and the Callers were not aware of the problem or did not know how to fix it.

I know myself how to fix it, but I'm only with the Saturday team, not the Sunday team - it's a behind the scene political thing.

However we also had a major malfunction on Saturday - that however has been fixed during the week.

Anyway we are lucky this week as we don't have to call, with 1611 AM taking the 5RPH feed for the State Game.

Mind you, though we are an amateur station we should never allow this happen.

Though I'm only a caller/producer of the Saturday call, I offer my apologies for these non-broadcasts, and hope we can offer you a more professional broadcast in the future.

Peter Holden
(on behalf of 1611 AM 3XX)
(P.S. If anyone knowns someone that would want to do a $14,000 long term sponsor deal so we can get CODECS for a better delay free broadcast, I'd love to meeet them!!!)

Your calls are appreciated, 1611. 
Hope the gremlins leave you alone from now on.

As for the cash, have you tried the Tasmanian government? 
You'd have to call 4 games a year there, give your members the finger and change your name to 3 double Tassie but you'd get the dollars.

Wouldn't want to go down that path...

Jeff would sell us to Chinese investors!

Bowden, Hyde, Pettifer, Tivendale - in the same 22?

Going backwards IMO.

Match Report Vs. Bendigo
coburgtigers.com.au

The Tigers were back at home this week as they took on the Bendigo Bombers on Sunday in front of a large crowd at ABD Stadium. The Burger boys were aiming for their fourth straight victory, while the Bombers were also confident of a win with a couple of key Essendon players lining up.

After a tight but entertaining first half Coburg really got on top and kicked 14 goals to 5 in the second half to run out comfortable 51 point winners.

Fort Caruso played what was definitely his best game for the season so far as he helped himself to four goals. Not only that, but his pressure in the forward 50m was immense and created Bendigo turnovers that lead to more Burger goals.

Graham Polak was Coburg’s leading forward on the ground as he brought down 14 telling marks, many of them contested, and converted four goals.

Good defensive pressure by the Coburg backs forced Bendigo to be offline in the first term and lead by only a handful of points at the first break.
¼ Time: Coburg 3.1 (19)   Bendigo 3.5 (23)

Greg Tivendale has been in electric form this season and would be heading the Burgers best and fairest count at this stage of the season. He was again instrumental playing through the midfield and across half forward. Tivendale finished the match with 33 pin point possessions and a match high five goals.

In a fairly even second quarter Bendigo kicked five majors to Coburg’s four, and led by a slender eight point margin at half time.
½ Time: Coburg 7.6 (48)   Bendigo 8.8 (56)

Coburg came out flying in the third quarter as they piled on eight goals to Bendigo’s two. The way the ball was delivered to the forwards was a delight for the home side to watch. Daniel Jackson was a standout in the second half and collected a lot of possessions through the middle of the ground, finishing the match with a season high 28 touches.

Coburg’s stalwarts; Captain Paul Shelton and key midfielder Nick Carnell, were again amongst the Burgers best, controlling the stoppages around the ground and using the ball very effectively. Coburg seemed to be in control of the game heading into the final change, leading by just over four goals.
¾ Time: Coburg 15.9 (99)   Bendigo 10.14 (74)

The last term has been the Burgers bogey quarter in a few games this year, but it certainly wasn’t the case on Sunday as the Burgers powered home another seven goals elevating them to a healthy 51 point margin when the final siren sounded. Mitch Morton and Nat Caruso both added a couple of goals each, while Dean Polo also stood out and won his position well.

Coburg now sit in fifth spot on the ladder with five wins and face Werribee on Sunday week at Bartercard oval looking for their fifth straight victory.

Coburg Tigers       3.1  7.6  15.9    22.13 (145)
Bendigo Bombers  3.5  8.8  10.14  13.16 (94)

Goal Kickers: G. Tivendale 5, F. Caruso 4, G. Polak 4, N. Caruso 2, M. Morton 2, C. Howat, N. Lynch, N. Carnell, P. Shelton, L. McGuane

Best Players: G. Polak, F. Caruso, G. Tivendale, P. Shelton, N. Carnell, D. Polo

RESERVES

The Reserves amassed an incredible 62 scoring shots to Bendigo’s measly 10 on Sunday, clearly a season high that is unlikely to be beaten. After an extremely inaccurate 8 goals 19 behinds in the first half, the Burgers opened the flood gates in the second half blazing through an amazing 22 goals to win by 167 points.

Shaun Huy, Cathal Corr and Damien Rayson were Coburg’s best, while Jake De Sousa and Clayton Collard kicked 9 goals between them.

Coburg Tigers       6.9 8.19 18.27 30.32 (212)
Bendigo Bombers 2.0   6.2    6.3     7.3 (45)

Goal Kickers: J. De Sousa 5, C. Collard 4, T. Dulic 3, D. Rayson 3, R. Jordan 3, B. Clifton 3, P. Currie 2, G. Carrick 2, C. Corr, D. Meyer, D. Putt, N. Cattapan, J. Jones

Best Players: S. Huy, C. Corr, D. Rayson, B. Clifton, D. Meyer, W. Smith

For those that went yesterday how was Polo's disposal? It sounded average in the first half going by the radio commentary.

Is Connors worthy of promotion?

No preseason means the year as far as playing (regular) seniors is a write-off (not the superclass of a Cotchin obviously). I can only see him playing seniors this year late in the season and only if we're out of finals contention and giving everyone a game or we suddenly cop a heap of injuries. He needs to focus more on doing the basics well. We know he can do the freakish stuff. 

I rate Connors quite highly. He does not lack class what so ever.

I didn't say Daniel lacked class. He just isn't in the superclass level that Cotchin is. I remember talking to one of the Richmond trainers preseason and I said we most likely won't see Cotch much in the seniors this year because he hasn't had any preseason. The trainer said to me it won't matter with Cotchin. He's so good it's still worth playing him off the bench in 5-10 minute spells. Connors on the other hand needs a full preseason and to be match fit so he has the necessary workrate to play seniors.

Ditto.

Conners did something to his shoulder and am not sure how he will pull up.

Rawlings says it is only a minor shoulder injury in EOTT. McGuane also got crunched heavily early on but like Connors played on through it.
