Werribee have their third consecutive goal, the lead now out to 22.

Miles gets a free kick 40 out, but his effort fades away to the right.

Bit of a lull in play. Fletcher goes back for a set shot that narrowly missed.

Stengle with a beautiful duck and weave before setting up Lennon for his fourth!

Soldo done his knee

So we now only have Chol as our back up ruck/2nd KPF (ignoring Ivan who's finished as an AFL footballer).

If Nanks gets injured we're stuffed  .

From misfortune opportunity knocks. Time to give Chol a run and see what he can do - by the sounds of it Soldo has either done an acl or pcl, Elton his collarbone, Griff is in limbo and Maric is cooked.

If Chol fails abysmally we'll then have to look at bringing Garthwaite in. Theres nothing left lol
