It was a game with plenty of errors. It was only interesting because the game was close. There was an all in push and shove at quarter time.
The Bullants were the better team on the day and deserved their 10 point win.
David Ellard had a great day winning the ABC TV Man of the Match after also playing the first half of the reserves as well.
In the reserves game, Williamstown blew the Bullants away in the second half winning 18-15(123) to 9-14(68 ).
I did not get there until after quarter time but one of the field umpires ended up in hospital after a collision with a Williamstown player during the first quarter.
