A more serious hitout for the bullants with Werribee fielding a decent although not full strength side. they had most of their VFL list in but were probably a couple of Footscray players short.
Bullants dominated the first-half with only Ross Young, Frank Raso and Justin Crow sitting it out. Dylan McLaren and David Teague only played the first-half with some of the younger Carlton players having a run in the second-half.
The Bullants were a bit flat after half-time but held on to win. Both sides are sure to have good seasons.
Daniel Harford, Anthony Franchina, Josh Houlihan and Josh Vansittart all had their first hitouts for the season.
Harford played only the first-half and showed that he'll still be a valuable player at VFL level. Lacks a bit of pace but still very good with his hands.
Houlihan was good playing off a wing. Finished the game with five behinds, but his field kicking is generally good.
Nick Fallu was one of the Bullants best. Hardly played last year but was impressive in the second half of the prelim. final and looks to have come on.
