THE showdown between White Hills and North Bendigo highlights Saturday\u2019s seventh round of the Bendigo Bank Heathcote DFNL senior footy action.<\/p>\n
Heat will be high as the Demons and Bulldogs clash at Winslow Constructors Oval in Scott Street, White Hills.<\/p>\n
Both line-ups have changed markedly, but the memory of last season\u2019s elimination final loss to the Demons will spur the Rob Bennett-coached North Bendigo team.<\/p>\n
White Hills has a four and one record following a 14-point win at Lockington last round.<\/p>\n
Nicholas Warnock, Jake Pallpratt, Nathan Moffat and Cohen Kekich were best for the red and black.<\/p>\n
North Bendigo\u2019s unbeaten run kept rolling in a 51-point triumph at home against Leitchville Gunbower.<\/p>\n
Jordan Ford kicked eight goals and will test the Dees defence, while the work rate of Tim Devereux and Matt Gray in defence, and captain Aarryn Craig was outstanding.<\/p>\n
Another big match will be at Lockington where LBU strives to avoid a hat-trick of defeats.<\/p>\n
The Stacy Fiske-coached Cats take on a Heathcote team brimming with confidence after a nine-point win on Mount Pleasant\u2019s turf at Toolleen.<\/p>\n
Key players for the Andrew Saladino-coached Heathcote include Braden Padmore, Liam Jacques, Connor Hamilton, and gun forward Corey Grindlay.<\/p>\n
Leitchville Gunbower is back on home turf at Leitchville to take on Huntly.<\/p>\n
The Bombers played well at home in round five to beat LBU and have ruckman Jobee Warde, Caleb Hislop and Tom Brereton in form.<\/p>\n
Huntly worked incredibly hard to finish within 17 points of Colbinabbin at Huntly\u2019s Strauch Reserve last Saturday.<\/p>\n
Hawks\u2019 co-coach Harry Whittle was best for the brown and gold, along with Jackson Fry, Lachlan Watson and Lachy Wilson.<\/p>\n
Elmore is at home to take on Mount Pleasant and the Bloods had the bye last round and take on a Blues team on the rebound from defeat.<\/p>\n
Colbinabbin has the bye.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
