Bendigo Advertiser | KYNETON laid a significant bogey to rest in Saturday night’s soggy conditions at the QEO, registering a four-goal win over South Bendigo.
It was the Tigers’ first victory at BFNL headquarters since round 18 in 1999, but it took a dogged effort against a committed Bloods outfit.
A lot of the credit for Kyneton’s success must go to key defender Harrison Huntley and running defensive linkman Bryce Hinneberg.
Huntley’s marking on the last line and Hinneberg’s run were key factors in the Tigers’ 10.11 (71) to 6.11 (47) win.
South enjoyed its most productive period in the first term, nailing four of its six goals of the evening.
Although unable to land a goal all night at the city end, Michael Tonkin, busy midfielder Joel Swatton and tough flankers Matt Dwyer and Darby Walsh were on target at the Barnard Street end.
