A RED-HOT Sandhurst will strive to keep an unbeaten run rolling in Saturday\u2019s fourth round of the Bendigo Bank Bendigo FNL\u2019s senior footy season.<\/p>\n
After a 35-point win against Golden Square to mark a hat-trick of wins in the Ron Best Memorial Shield contests, Sandhurst tackles Storm on its turf at Triple M Park in Tannery Lane.<\/p>\n
The Ash Connick and Bryce Curnow-coached Sandhurst will be without VFL-aligned players Lachlan Tardrew, Sam Conforti and Cobi Maxted, but ooze class on every line.<\/p>\n
A premiership winner and Nalder medallist as best afield in Storm\u2019s grand final win in 2019, Curnow returns to Strathfieldsaye as an opponent.<\/p>\n
Other key players for the Dragons include ruckman Hamish Hosking, Matt Thornton, Andy Collins, Zach Pallpratt, Nick Stagg and Liam Ireland.<\/p>\n
Storm has a 2-1 record following a 97-point win at Castlemaine.<\/p>\n
Captain and gun forward Lachlan Sharp did not play against the Pies, so it was James Schischka and Jed Brereton who led the attack.<\/p>\n
A strong Storm line-up includes Michelsen medallist Jake Moorhead, Callum McCarty, Mitch Hallinan and Baxter Slater.<\/p>\n
On the rebound from defeat, Golden Square is at home at Fur Life Oval in Wade Street to take on South Bendigo.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s another big test for the Christian Carter-coached Bulldogs, especially against a Bloods\u2019 attack that has the skilful Will Keck and Steven Stroobants in form.<\/p>\n
After a hard-fought win at Maryborough, Kangaroo Flat is at home at Dower Park to face a Gisborne line-up reeling from a big loss to Eaglehawk.<\/p>\n
The Roos have the running power to test the Brad Fox-coached Bulldogs.<\/p>\n
Kyneton and Maryborough clash in Tigerland and both teams are chasing their first win of the season.<\/p>\n
