Murphy Ambrose goals from 45m.

Need a couple more before 1/4 time.

Agree Bents. Contin looking like being good rookie pick in a couple of years time as he improves.

Clifton drag off the ball and then gets 50m. Goal 

33 - 13

[one-eyed]

1/4 time

Coburg  5.3-33
Bendigo 2.1-13

Goals: Lawton 2, Clifton, Ambrose, Thursty

[one-eyed]

Only 4 RFC guys in the top of the stats

Rance   4k 1h
Taylor   1k 3h ...... Peter German liked his breaking the game open off HB.
Polak     2k 0h
Thursty  2k 0h

I thought Contin has worked hard as well at stoppages in and under.

Stats are fairly even all up. Coburg leading 12-7 inside 50s.

[one-eyed]

poor kick inside defensive 50 and Thursty gets pinged.

33 - 19

Coburg a bit too cute with the short passes. Landing short.

[Danog]

Umps are being VERY generous towards us.  Hopefully it'll be the same for Richmond

[mightytiges]

Someone needs to tell Coburg it's still wet weather footy in the mud and breeze even if it's sunny out there. No point going short if little 10m kicks and 1m handballs miss targets  .

[one-eyed]

Back to just a point now and still half the quarter to go. 33 - 32  

[one-eyed]

Lucky to be so close. Lawton got that badly needed goal into the breeze

1/2 time

Coburg  5.3   6.4-40
Bendigo 2.1   7.7-49

Goals: Lawton 3, Clifton, Ambrose, Thursty

[Judge Roughneck]

Rance has been going alright.

Rayson character needs to play or the coburg reserves
