THE country came to the city for the VFL match of the day yesterday as regional powerhouses Bendigo and North Ballarat locked horns at Windy Hill, with the Ballarat side prevailing by 13 points.
A strong cross-ground breeze made precision football difficult, but in a lively first term, Kangaroo rookie Michael Wundke stamped his presence on the game up forward with two early goals. Grant Weeks was just as good for the Bombers but failed to convert his opportunities on the scoreboard.
Although North Ballarat held an early advantage, Bendigo had most of the play. However, the Bombers were not as constructive and lacked drive from the back line.
