Match Reviews | NORTH Bendigo unleashed a final quarter blitz to beat Heathcote by 50 points in Saturday’s round seven clash in Agnico Eagle Fosterville Gold Mine Heathcote DFNL senior footy.

The Bulldogs faced a 15-point deficit at quarter-time of their home game at Bendigo Club Oval in Atkins Street.

As the Dogs scored five goals in the second they kept the Saints to a solitary major.

By the main break North Bendigo led 47-35.

The Heathcote line-up coached by Andrew Saladino, non-playing, and Liam Jacques, playing, looked a great chance to end its winless run in the kennel after it scored 6.2 and held the Dogs to a tally of 3.6 in the third.

Going into the final term the Saints were up 73-71.

The last was dominated by the Bulldogs as they slammed on 11 goals and the Saints added two goals.

Heathcote was down to 17 on-field after Jacques was yellow-carded and sent off after being reported for striking.

What should have been 15 minutes became 20 minutes after a miscommunication.

The Bulldogs seized on the moment and surged to a 138-88 victory.
