00:00Chance to kick his first of the afternoon, and arguably Melton's most important goal
00:07of the afternoon.
00:08They trail by three points, time on final term, deliberate approach, left foot, it's
00:15missed all and Sundry, yeah, no stuffed toys at the show with that shot, terrible, pressure.
00:26Short kick in was okay, but it'll have to go back, so that'll be Newitt with ball in
00:33hand, Lieber wants it short, but I think he'll try and just get it out of the area, he goes
00:41short and the kick's good, found Guthrie, he's worked his way up to almost double figure
00:47marks this afternoon, so he too will continue the ball to the outer side of the ground.
00:57Loose ball opportunity here for Hickey, who got it to Phillips, awkward high up and under
01:02kick, players set themselves, they pay the mark, well they did, I wasn't sure how far
01:06that kick went to be honest, oh the kick smothered by Sutton, terrific play, somehow fell back
01:13into the hands of Watkins who went forward, Stewart had front spot, could hang on to the
01:17mark, Wood did the roving, coughed it up by hand, chance here, shot out of the congestion,
01:22was the top of the square, Sundry got numbers, ground ball, Borg, goal, no!
01:27Kicking out of defence, we've got a two point ball game now, it was good, gee Borg would have brought
01:44the house down, with a finish, a Borg finish, that's what they need at the Bloods, Egan had
01:52his hands on it, went through his hands, tied hands at that, it'll be a ball up, tacking
01:59side of Setawing, broadcast side for Melton, they trailed by two points, tick over 22 minutes
02:04gone, final turn, 8-7 play, 7-11, Melton led by two at quarter time, trailed by 12 at the
02:11half and led by one at three quarter, and now they're trailing in by two, Egan flies the hand
02:16pass out to Hannett, can go long if he wants but lower the eyes, it went to Sutton, got a
02:21terrible bounce, here come the reinforcements for the Bloods through Sutton, got the outnumber with
02:26Minito, needs to be clean, got the ball away, that was a clever knock on there from Bramble,
02:30power was ridden into the ground, a play called, play on, before a whistle and a ball up on true
02:37set a half forward for Sundry, near 23 minutes gone, final term, time ticking away, just a goal
02:46a piece in this final term, hurried kick out of the congestion, and the Bloods yet to kick a goal
02:54in this term, my correction, loose ball, tired players out there, Boyd hacks it forward, meant
03:02for Egan, kept his feet, Minito gathered, went back to Mawson, needs a short kick here, found one,
03:10kick was good, Lockie Walker tipped it over the top,
03:19to Phillips, could lower the eyes, kick had to be good and it was,
03:25found Ryan Carter a mile away from home, it went wide, the kick was good to Jack Walker
03:29who's kept presenting today, right foot kick towards half forward, two on one,
03:34Sundry do it again off half back, oh he's told to play on by the umpire, knew it's nearly gone, and he is!
03:45Watkins now, to send the Bloods into attack,
03:49out in the kite direction and it knocked away from him by Urban,
03:52close up against the boundary line, can they keep it in?
03:57They can't, well they can in fact, it'll be resulting in a ball up,
04:01still anyone's game, Sundry 55 lead, Milton 53, took over 24 minutes gone, final term,
04:07just the one goal in this quarter to Sundry, that got them back to the lead,
04:13here they go, look out, here's the Borg moment, shot on goal, he's got it!
04:19He's got the Bloods back in front here at Clark Oval, with his first of the afternoon,
04:39Milton's first of the quarter, they've kicked one goal, five in this final term,
04:45Sundry have one goal too, but more importantly, that one goal from the Bloods,
04:55has been enough to keep them with a four point lead, 25 minutes gone, final term, ball up,
05:07tap one by McIntyre, ground ball opportunity, here they go, Lawrence, Sutton got it,
05:13sent the ball forward, high kick, Mawson, took an uncontested mark, they just had weight of
05:18numbers, Sundry out and behind the footing, and they'll hold it up, it's Sutton, he's had a good
05:25second half, been good, really stood up in the absence of Walker and Cotter, told to play on by
05:32the umpire, so it goes along the line to the outer side of the ground, players set themselves urban
05:37from the side, had plenty of it, told to play on by the umpire, that'll tune, there'll be a ball up,
05:43he's going to take mark of the year one day, that fella, ball up, tap one by Ampolski,
05:51ground level ball, shark there by Kite, hurried kick, along the line, speaking of Braden,
05:56turnover kick, chance here for Sundry, through the lever, he'll get it in the middle of the
06:01ground, a power, he's held up in the middle, he can spring the ball, lateral to Boyd, he's got
06:07to putt it, chose not to go forward, they're going to keep the ball moving, just a goal
06:13apiece in the final term, won't be a long quarter, Boyd set the ball inwards, attack, Sutton's got it,
06:22unbelievable, siren sounds, Sutton's got the ball in hand,
06:29it can't be a draw, Melton lead by four points, Sutton will kick from outside 50,
06:38euphoria for one, despair for the other, we did talk about a climatic final term,
06:49couldn't have been any closer to the truth, it'll be Sutton, slight breeze, slight breeze,
06:57he'll kick from 51, with the old-fashioned torpedo, off the side of the boot, Melton
07:03what a cliffhanger here at the Clark Oval,
07:10there's an emotional band of Melton supporters and players stream onto the ground,
07:15to be all over Brodie Sullivan, cousin of Billy, tragic passing during the week, what a courageous
07:23effort from the Bloods who were two down, they lost Riley Walker with concussion in the opening
07:28term, Troy Scable, Jordie Cotter in that third term with what looks to be a serious knee injury,
07:35I think it's just more relief than anything else for the Bloods, such a courageous,
07:39emotive effort to come from behind at halftime, they trailed by as much as 20 points
07:44midway through that third term and then came the moment, the Borg moment,
07:49he hit the post with his first attempt, but with the second, was enough
07:57to give the Bloods back the lead, won't be a dry eye in the Melton club rooms, I tell you what,
08:08what a climax to a ripper game of footy,
08:10Melton 8-11-59, have defeated Sunbury 8-7-55, the goal scorers
08:25for Melton, who kick one goal five in that final term, to Sunbury's one goal two.
