Match Preview | South Bendigo will fight to keep the Graeme Wright Memorial Cup out of Sandhurst’s hands in Saturday’s fifth round of senior footy in the Bendigo Bank Bendigo FNL season.
The match to honour one of the Bloods’ great defenders and clubmen will be at South Bendigo’s new home at Harry Trott Oval in Kennington’s Neale Street from 2.20pm. Last season’s Cup battle between the-then QEO co-tenants ended in an eight-point win for the red and white.
The Bloods will up the pressure rating against the unbeaten Dragons. South Bendigo gained plenty of confidence from a one-point win at Golden Square last round.
Among the many key duels in Saturday’s contest will be in the ruck where Bloods’ gun recruit Mac Cameron is up against Hamish Hosking.
Both are superb at centre clearances and boundary throw-ins, but also provide plenty of run and marking power around the ground.
