Match Reviews | Sandhurst is celebrating winning all three footy premierships in the one season for the first time in its 163-year history.
Founded on the goldfields in 1861, Sandhurst is one of the oldest football clubs in the country.
On Saturday the Dragons roared to premiership glory in all three grades of footy in a grand finale to the Bendigo Bank Bendigo Football Netball League season.
The Dragons tackled Gisborne in all three football contests on Queen Elizabeth Oval.
Strong defensive efforts and the ability to capitalise with the breeze in the third quarter were crucial factors in Sandhurst fighting on for a 68-64 victory.
Although it played into the breeze the Rob Waters-coached Gisborne led 19-12 at quarter-time.
The Bulldogs made a change from their ‘named’ team as the experienced Jarrad Lynch was in for Patrick Trotta.
When Pat McKenna was on target the Bulldogs led by 14 points in the second term.
The Dragons answered through Matt Wilkinson.
