Final scores were:
Box Hill 15.6 (96) def by Port Melbourne 17.9 (111)
Very good game of football despite the muddy conditions in the centre.
Port Melbourne had a seven goal third quarter which put them in front going into the final change.
BOG was probably Tim Hazell who had a heap of the ball and also contributed in the forward line kicking 3 goals. David Pitt was also very good finishing with 4.
Tom Langford made a solid contribution in his debut game.
I stand corrected!

I thought Robbie Cheevers was absolutely terrific in the first half as well.
I'm not sure if it was the umpiring decisions, but the crowd was very involved in todays game, despite the relatively small crowd.
Listening to Casey Radio gave the 3 votes to Hazell but they gave the 2 votes to Warren Carlyle who hasn't featured in the club best players, how did the big ruckman go today Ons?
Bit of a weird game today. BH were on top for about 2 and a bit quarters and then Port just rolled over the top of us. Timmy Hazell was very good late.
I had Jason Cook down for 6 goals though...
Carlyle was played impressive football for the Borough this year and I look forward to getting a proper look at him in a couple of weeks when the Tigers travel to TEAC Oval.
