Boosted by a terrific second half from star forward Anthony Rocca,
Collingwood finished strongly to capture a 25-point victory against old
rivals Richmond in good conditions on Friday night before a great 70,569
at the MCG. Rocca managed just two possessions in the first half as the
Tigers took early control, but finished with three goals and handed off
several others in the second half as the Pies stormed home to their
second victory of the season.
Len Johnson noted in The Age: Collingwood reeled in
a 22-point deficit to level the scores with a seven goals to four third
quarter, and then went on with the job. Paul Medhurst, and two
from Rocca added three more goals before the Tigers scored again. At
that stage the Magpies led by 20 points and it had been a 42-point swing
since half-time.
James Clement was a late withdrawal from Collingwood, his place
being taken by Shane Wakelin. Clement was vomiting in the rooms
after the on-ground warm-up and was replaced 20 minutes before the start
after match officials and Richmond were notified of the late change.
Troy Simmonds, who had not played this season after fracturing an
ankle during pre-season did not start on the ground for Richmond but
took his place after the first goal and played most of the first half.
Richmond would have been disappointed not to have enjoyed a bigger
advantage at half-time. Despite having 17 scoring shots – mostly from
favourable positions – the Tigers kicked only seven goals. Matthew
Richardson was one offender, missing three "gettable" shots, though
he had converted two from longer range. The Magpies had a conversion
rate of four goals from 10 shots, but it was their general field kicking
that was more at fault.
Those four goals did include the mandatory piece of magic from Leon
Davis. The mercurial small forward may have been a little lucky to
have got away with nudging Darren Gaspar under the ball, but he
more than repaid any indulgence with an exquisite right foot shot which
he bent through from the forward-pocket boundary line.
Collingwood had gambled by selecting three debutants for the match.
Fittingly the win was iced by one of them – Alan Toovey – when he
kicked his third goal late in the final term. Brad Dick also
contributed two goals from limited game time. The other newcomer,
Shannon Cox, laid three tackles, took two marks and had eight
touches in his first outing. |

Carlton celebrated Rivalry Round in a Saturday afternoon epic against
Essendon in front of 64,710. The Blues had one of the finest wins in the
club's history, coming from 48 points down at
28½
minutes into Q2 – four points more than their previous biggest comeback
from 44 points down in the 1970 grand final against Collingwood –
Carlton kicked the last three goals of Q2 and then seven goals in Q3 against the Dons to hit the lead when Fevola
kicked his third goal of the term in the 22nd minute.
Rohan Connolly in The Age assessed that the Blues
weren't just seemingly dead, but buried and decomposed, so dominant was
their opponent. The eight-goal margin just before half-time flattered
them, Essendon having by then booted a wasteful 12.13 – 24 scoring shots
to just 12. At quarter-time the contrast had been even more stark, the
Bombers having kicked 7.9 to just 2.1. At that stage, a 100-point
belting was on the cards.
Angus Morgan noted for Sportal: The Bombers had set
the early tone with the irrepressible Scott Lucas scoring two
goals from his eight marks and 10 disposals of the first quarter, while
Damien Peverill, Jobe Watson and Jason Winderlich
were almost as prolific. After starting forward, Lance Whitnall
replaced Jarrad Waite on Lucas but appeared incapable of curbing
his opponent. Essendon opened up a 48-point break just before half-time
when Andrew Lovett slotted his third, but the Blues managed to
score the last three, two to Brendan Fevola and one to Matthew
Lappin, to narrow the gap to 30-points at the long interval.
The late rally gave Denis Pagan something to work with and while
the Blues must have been hopeful of fighting their way back they could
never have expected what was to follow. In a scoreline that mirrored the
first quarter, Carlton slammed through seven goals – four of them to
Fevola – to Essendon's one to edge seven points up at the final change.
Mal Michael's worst nightmare, Fevola was at his hard-running
best. timing his leads to perfection and converting brilliantly from
distance. Importantly, Whitnall started getting into the contest and
began to win more of the ball in the midfield. In a thrilling final
term, Fevola added two more as the Blues were never headed, but the
match was in the balance right to the final siren with a host of players
from both sides including Nick Stevens, Waite and Andrew
Walker for Carlton, and Lovett and Leroy Jetta for the
Bombers, missing chances that could have iced the game, or pinched it.
Carlton's effort equalled the 15th biggest comeback in League history. |

Adelaide withstood a spirited fightback by Port Adelaide to win Showdown
22 by 24 points in front of a crowd of 36,959 on Saturday afternoon at
Football Park. The Crows have repaired their reputation after the
surprise loss to Essendon in the opening round early in the month.
Ashley Porter reviewed the match for The Age and
noted the irony as the Crows carved up one of the younger teams, it was
the "old" ones who displayed the dash for Adelaide, while the "kids" not
only stood up to the mental challenge but thrived on the physical
battles. Andrew McLeod won another medal for being best on ground
in the struggle for hometown bragging rights, and the Crows rattled the
Power's cage to lead by 38 points early in the third quarter, only to be
forced to respond to an admirable comeback.
Unlike some early showdowns, Adelaide was extremely disciplined in the
way every player worked and protected teammates, allowing the likes of
McLeod to break tagging shackles and have a huge impact. The execution
of skills, indeed the endeavour, was exemplary.
Alan Shiell in review for Sportal reported: Over
four quarters, Adelaide played the superior football and simply
outclassed Port. The Crows' skills were better, they were more creative
and they teamed more effectively. Adelaide flooded back repeatedly and
thrived on the interceptions and running rebound of McLeod, Nathan
Bassett, Martin Mattner, Jason Torney and Ben
Rutten, who denied Port a winner ahead of centre. Bassett smothered
Brett Ebert and Rutten kept a tight rein on Warren Tredrea,
who struggled to climb into the game in his comeback from knee surgery –
although the service to him was erratic – and he was rested on the bench
occasionally.
Tall forwards Scott Welsh (four), Ian Perrie (three),
Scott Stevens (two), Nathan Bock (one) and Brett Burton
kicked 11 of Adelaide's 13 goals. Welsh's two goals in the final term –
either side of one from Perrie – sealed victory for the Crows. |

St Kilda smashed the Western Bulldogs by 50 points on Saturday night
under the closed roof at Docklands. In the space of just three weeks the
Bulldogs have gone from being one of the hottest prospects from
Victoria, to seeking answers to twin defeats by 38 and 50 points in
successive weeks.
Brendon Goddard was in superb form for the Saints, gathering 26
touches as he marshalled the troops in defence while Nick Riewoldt
playing his first game after hamstring problems was in good touch with
four goals.
St Kilda gave the Bulldogs an early blast from which they never
recovered, Sam Lienert reported in Sportal: The
damage started in the centre square, where 35-year-old veteran Robert
Harvey was on fire early, along with hard man Steven Baker
and Andrew Thompson. Baker set the tone for his side in the
physical stakes, laying a crunching tackle on star Bulldog midfielder
Scott West in the opening passage of play, with the subsequent
turnover setting up an easy goal for Fraser Gehrig just 30
seconds into the match.
The Saints had many more options in attack than the Dogs, who leaned
heavily on skipper Brad Johnson, particularly in the first half
when he kicked 3.3 of his side's 3.6 to half time. St Kilda had 11
goalkickers, with Riewoldt and Gehrig and Justin Koschitzke
constant dangers, although the trio let themselves down with some poor
shooting for goal.
While the Bulldogs fought their way back into the match in general play
in the second quarter, with West, Daniel Cross and Matthew
Boyd exerting an influence, their lack of presence in attack meant
they were unable to make enough inroads to change the outcome as their
small defenders struggled. |

West Coast notched its third win of the year and took over ladder
leadership as the only unbeaten team following their impressive 31-point win over Fremantle on
Saturday night at Subiaco before a cheek-by-jowl 42,051 fans. The
Dockers remain winless.
Justin Chadwick noted for Sportal: that the Eagles
led by just 13 points heading into the final change, but four unanswered
goals midway through the last quarter saw West Coast as runaway winners.
Mark Duffield suggested in The West Australian that
it could have been far worse had the Eagles made better use of their
scoring opportunities. They doubled Fremantle's shots-at-goal tally, but
kicking for goal was the only area in which they didn't kick with
superior precision.
The 14.17 to 11.4 scoreline was indicative of a lesson in hard-nosed
football. Led by midfielders Daniel Kerr, Michael Braun
and Chris Judd, the Eagles held sway for most of the match. Braun
won the Ross Glendinning Medal for best afield, but it was an award that
could have just as easily gone to Kerr, Judd or Tyson Stenglein,
while defenders Darren Glass and Brent Staker also had
great games. Fremantle battled, with Paul Hasleby's 24 touches a
standout and Luke McPharlin controlling Eagle spearhead Quinten
Lynch reasonable well, but beyond that Fremantle struggled. |

Reports:
l
Des Headland (Fre) was cited for three incidents against Adam Selwood
(WCE) during the third quarter. The first striking charge was assessed
as intentional contact (three points), low impact (one point) and high
contact (two points) which attracted 225 demerit points but due to
suspensions of four matches in the past three years the penalty increased by
40 per cent to 315 points and draws a three-match suspension. The second
striking charge was assessed as a Level Three offence, attracting a
three-match suspension. If Headland is found guilty of both charges, he
would suspended for six matches. Under AFL rules, multiple charges in the
same week are combined. Headland's third charge is for wrestling Selwood
which draws a fine of $1200.
The Tribunal found Headland guilty of the first striking offence and the
wrestling charge, but found him not guilty of the second striking
charge.
The Tribunal ruled Headland was provoked by comments made by Selwood to
such an extent that it constituted "exceptional and compelling
circumstances", thereby giving the Tribunal discretion not to impose a
penalty.
l
Josh Carr was cited for striking Daniel Chick (WCE) as a Level
Three offence. Carr's recent suspensions increases the penalty to suspension
of three matches. However an early plea would reduce to a two-match ban.
Fremantle sought the jurisdiction of the Tribunal. On Wednesday the Tribunal
cleared Carr of the charge, noting that West Coast failed to provide
sufficient evidence to support the charge.
l
Adam Selwood (WCE) was cited with using insulting words towards
Des Headland (Fre) during the third quarter. An early plea is not
available to Selwood. The incident has been referred directly to the AFL
Tribunal for its judgement. On Wednesday night the Tribunal found Selwood
not guilty of using insulting language against Headland. |
Sydney fought back from a 10-point three-quarter time deficit to give
Michael O'Loughlin a fitting victory for his 250th club game on a
warm Sunday afternoon at the SCG against the Brisbane Lions. Only 24,854
people were accommodated with the venue undergoing an 18-month
redevelopment of the old Hill area which will be covered with a new
grandstand by 2009.
O'Loughlin finished with three goals in his 250th, on a day which also
recorded Barry Hall passing 500 career goals, Darren Jolly
playing his 100th game and Jonathan Brown kicking his 200th goal
for Brisbane.
Tim Morrissey reviewed the match for the Herald Sun:
A stirring Brett Kirk speech during the final break, a little
Michael O'Loughlin magic and a couple of unlikely heroes ensured
Sydney's day of milestones didn't turn sour. O'Loughlin on cue, played a
decisive role in the fourth-quarter comeback, kicking two of his three
goals.
However, it was Swans full-back Leo Barry popping up in the
forward line nine minutes into the term who sparked the revival by
kicking his first goal in six years. The Herald Sun noted
that Sydney stopped the Lions in their tracks, having 16 inside 50s to
six in the final term and scoring five goals to nil. For the quarter,
Brisbane only managed 38 disposals, while the Swans racked up 102.
Tim Schmidt stepped up when it counted, scoring two final term goals
while O'Loughlin also scored two majors from three kicks.
Brisbane coach Leigh Matthews took plenty from the game,
commenting, that for three quarters the Lions were really good against a
side that is well proven at playing high-pressure, intense footy. |

An
efficient Geelong humbled the injury-hit Melbourne by 52 points on a
mainly sunny afternoon at the MCG on Sunday. The 197cm, 105kg frame of
18-year-old Tom Hawkins who earned some fancy reviews for his
three-goal debut the previous week had the scribes reaching for
superlatives as he booted four goals in the first half against the
Demons. Despite spending a significant part of the second term on the
bench, The Age noted Demons' coach Neale Daniher
was forced to double-team "Tomahawk" in the third quarter.
Hawkins was just one – another youngster, 20-year-old Brent Prismall
was also impressive, kicking three goals, while burrowing into packs and
picking up plenty of touches around the ground. Geelong hardly missed
forward Nathan Ablett, who withdrew minutes before the game, with
Joel Selwood rushed into the side. Gary Ablett and Paul
Chapman were typically classy at half-forward, Jimmy Bartel
and Cameron Ling were industrious in the midfield, while the pace
of Shannon Byrnes and David Wojcinski provided some
thrilling moments.
While fellow key forwards Cameron Mooney and Brad Ottens
were relegated to sideshow status, the big Cat Mooney flattened Demon
midfielders Nathan Jones and Travis Johnstone with fierce
bumps in a two-minute burst of aggression midway through the second
term.
Scott Gullan observed in the Herald Sun: Melbourne
did not have one outright winner for the day. At a pinch you could say
Brad Green, after he went to the goalsquare in the second quarter
and kicked four goals. Cameron Bruce touched the ball 30 times
but most of those were as a loose man in defence and were really
irrelevant possessions. Johnstone, Paul Wheatley, James
McDonald, Daniel Ward, Matthew Whelan and Adem Yze
all had more than 20 possessions yet absolutely no impact on the
contest. |

Hawthorn withstood a late challenge from the Kangaroos to get them home
by 21 points in the Sunday night fixture before 28,481 under the closed
roof at Docklands Stadium. The Kangas remain winless while percentage
takes the Hawks up to 8th place on the ladder – one of a record 10 clubs
who have a 2+1 win-loss ratio.
Bruce Matthews in his review for the Herald Sun
noted: After a dour first half, Hawthorn's Sam Mitchell produced
an inspiring personal fightback to lead his side to victory. The blond
Hawk onballer was still going strong near the final siren, typically
gathering the last of his 33 possessions in a players' crush to feed a
teammate. Mitchell summoned the assistance of experienced Shane
Crawford and gifted Luke Hodge in the critical third quarter
of a defence-dominated contest to wrest control and set up the win.
Simply, the Hawks wanted this more. And they were able to capitalise on
a more functional forward set-up to bust open the game in a stirring
second half. Hawthorn lifted its intensity and ran in numbers to seize
control of the midfield in the third quarter.
The Kangaroos were typically brave. It was the in-and-under work of
Daniel Harris and Daniel Wells' silky skills that enabled the
Kangas to preserve the lead until midway through the third quarter.
But once Mitchell and his mates sniffed victory, the result was never in
doubt, despite three goals from Dean Laidley's boys late in the
last quarter. |
