TAC Cup
Four current and two former Calder Cannons players have been selected to attend the state combine later this year. Ben Allan and talls Jayden Foster, Mark Kovacevic and Reilly O’Brien will test their skills in front of AFL recruiters at the combine. VFL players Jake Owen and Adam Saad, who both played with the Cannons, have also been selected. The Cannons will face North Ballarat Rebels on Sunday after a bye this week.
FFV
Sporting Whittlesea and Hume United were both on the wrong side of the results in the FFV state league 2 north west competition on Saturday. Sporting Whittlesea lost 3-0 to Corio, while Hume United lost 1-0 against Geelong. In state league 3 north west, nine-man Lalor United beat Geelong United 1-0, while Whittlesea United had the bye. In state league 4 north, Upfield lost 1-0 to West Preston, Meadow Park Eagles lost 3-1 to Heidelberg Eagles, Epping City was too good for Parkville Panthers winning 3-0, while Plenty Valley Lions won a high scoring affair against Bundoora United 6-4.
VFL
The Northern Blues were held scoreless in the final quarter of the VFL match against Williamstown on Sunday. And that hurt the Blues, who went from two points down at three-quarter time to losing by 40 points, 14.18 (102) to 9.8 (62). Patrick Cripps and Blaine Johnson scored two goals each for the Blues, who remain 10th on the ladder.
