00:00Chance here for Bond. He gathered. Went in board by hand.
00:05Loose ball opportunity here for Farrugia. He gathered. He's normally good below the
00:08knees this time. He went to ground and just
00:12knocked the ball towards McIntyre.
00:17Kick towards out of centre wing. Chance here for Fitzgibbon who's bailed up and
00:22there'll be a ball up.
00:24Through centre wing, out of side. Opening minute, third term.
00:28Melton led by 21 at quarter time. 15 of the half.
00:36Hurry kick out of the congestion there from Hickey. Got it to half forward. Kick
00:40across the body from Carter. Went forward towards Kite.
00:44Look out. Scoble's at the back here. If he can get it to sit up for him. But too
00:48clever Kite.
00:51Bond won that tap. Jack Walker kick smothered through Trappie. Fell into the
00:57hands of Farrugia. Clearing kick out the direction there of Carter.
01:03Pressure was good on Ford. Ping by the umpire.
01:06Against Ford. Carter will take the resultant free kick. Now way up the
01:09options. We'll go along the line towards half
01:12forward. Players set themselves. Carter couldn't take the mark. Chance
01:17here for Borg on the left boot. Goes in the Kite direction. He's got it.
01:23Just gets out the back and looks every bit dangerous.
01:26You just can't let him get goal side of you.
01:29Because he's always off to the races Kite.
01:32He's going to try and bustle him and keep you in front of him.
01:36But he'll just kick it over the end of Lawson and through for his second of the
01:41afternoon. Where he comes in. Effective ball up on
01:44half forward. Broadcast side for the Bloods.
01:47Near 13 minutes gone here. It'll be McIntyre and Bond. Give that tap
01:53to Bond. Farnsworth. It was Bond in fact who went with the
01:57underground hand pass. Chance for George. Quick hands meant for
02:01Jess. Slid off his hand. It was a clever little toe poke there from Jess to
02:05McNamara. But he couldn't gather.
02:09Russell was over the footy. So to Mawson. It's a hard footy there to gather at the
02:14moment. Bond was strong. Just threw it away in the end. Lucky to get
02:17away with it. Ericsson gathered. Tumbled the ball onto the boot. Went
02:20forward and Carter presented. She said good when they get in front the
02:24Carter boys. So Ryan Carter makes. Wastes no time. Gets the ball onto the
02:28boot to an open goal square. Did enough. And right wide towards
02:33Taj Bond. He's just got to wait under it. Ericsson did well to get a hand on the
02:36footy. Dave and Goliath battle there. And here go the Bloods through. Norrie
02:41got it over towards Sullivan. And they're away here. On their bikes.
02:45It's Walker. Inside 50. Kicks a beauty and found Ryan Carter.
02:50Did not have to move. Ball hit him on the chest. Laces out.
02:53He'll go back and have a shot on goal. 40 meters out.
02:58Nice passage of play there from the Bloods. Chance to extend here.
03:04It seems like they're just cruising through the gears here this afternoon.
03:09They're just raising the tempo when required.
03:15Trying conditions. So Carter for a chance to kick his second of the afternoon.
03:19Kicks on its way. He's a good shot on goal.
03:24X kick meant for Fitzgibbon. He can hang on to the mark.
03:27Now it's a chance for Kite. Broadcast center wing. Clever little chip.
03:30Beautifully weighted kick. Found Russell who took a mark on half forward.
03:37He sends it into attack. Looking for Carter on the lead. Presented and took an
03:40ice marker on the chest. Much to the disappointment of Shorty.
03:44He couldn't do too much about it. The delivery was
03:47sublime really. And Ryan Carter will go back and have a
03:51shot on goal for his third of the term. His third of the match. Chance to
03:57become a game high contributor on the goal front.
04:02With Melton's ninth and his third and their fifth of the term.
04:10He's an excellent shot for goal Ryan Carter. No mistake there. Gets his third
04:14of the term. Melton lead by 47 points.
04:20Gee Ballarat on their way to upsetting Sunbury. Who would have thought?
04:23Not I. Well done Chris Maple and the Swans. Unless Sunbury of course
04:29kicking with the breeze in the final term. Who knows what's going on out there.
04:32Gee that was a heavy contest and Broadbent came off worse for wear.
04:39Kick went forward. The mark's been taken there by Carter. He'll go back and have a
04:43shot on goal from the Point Black Rangers. Think of Liam.
04:48Chance to add further separation on the scoreboard.
04:56Both of Renan's goals coming in the second term.
04:59Melton, solid controp contribution over the four quarters and he makes no
05:04mistake.
05:06Mawson roped it like a small man. Quick hands.
05:10Over to Warticke. Tumbling ball inside 50. George
05:13hung onto it for near long enough given the conditions. Matthews is tackled
05:17slung to the ground. Umpire called play on. Chance here for Walker. Tackled
05:21without it there by George. Umpire agreed. Lockie Walker will go back
05:25and have a shot on goal here.
05:30He's in that testing range though. About 40 meters out given these
05:37conditions. Tired legs. Heavy ball. 47 point lead
05:42to the Bloods. He'll just take some time off the clock
05:48and have a deliberate shot on goal.
05:52That's a terrific attempt. Gee they kicked the ball well on goal Melton.
05:56It's gone. He's just snuck that in for a... He's hit him laces out a few times. Carter
06:01the kick was good and found Borg. 45 meters out from goal. He'll go back
06:07and have a shot here. Chance to kick his first of the
06:11afternoon and become the Bloods eighth contributor
06:16on the goal front. Of course Ryan Carter with three.
06:19Braden Kite two. Liam Carter two.
06:26And Borg for goal number one and the Bloods 12th of the afternoon. They lead
06:30by 53 points here. Near 15 minutes gone.
06:34Final turn.
06:38So it'll be Borg. Kicks on its way. Has he got the journey?
06:44Because he's got the accuracy. I think he's got both.
06:47Borg gets his first. One goal in this turn.
06:53So Kyle Borg.
06:59Near 25 minutes gone. Final turn. With a shot on goal here. You lower the eyes and
07:03go towards Kite. Presented. Come on. What's the umpire done here?
07:07He's going to pay the mark. So Braden Kite will go back and have a
07:10shot on goal here. Chance to kick his third.
07:15And add to his 50 goal season tally this year. Of course he's
07:25kicked 52 after his two goals last week.
07:30So Braden Kite loves these. Shot on goal.
07:33Look at that. If you don't mind. Braden Kite makes no mistake with his
07:39third of the afternoon.
07:42So it'll be forward with the tap. Only as far as
07:46Lockie Walker. Threw ball onto the boot. Somehow ended up back in his hands and
07:50he sent it forward towards Russell. Who wastes no time from out of
07:55center wing with the right foot kick. Out wide towards Carter and a one-armed
07:59attempt at it. Couldn't hang on to it. Look out. Here comes Kite.
08:01Loves a goal. But this time unselfishly with the vis. It was terrific.
08:06Found Minito who pushed forward and took a test mark. And he'll go back and have a
08:09shot on goal here. Chance to kick his first of the
08:14afternoon. An extent on this big win.
08:19This big lead that the Bloods have. Just merciless.
08:25Minito. Goal. There's another one to the Bloods.
08:29Minito becomes.
