ON A FOUR-game winning streak, Kyneton\u2019s Tigers will eye an upset result on Strathfieldsaye Storm\u2019s turf in Saturday\u2019s ninth round of senior footy in the Bendigo Bank Bendigo FNL season.<\/p>\n
Kyneton treks to Triple M Park in Strathfieldsaye\u2019s Tannery Lane determined to keep the momentum rolling.<\/p>\n
After three straight losses to start the season, the Paul Chapman-coached Tigers have struck back to beat Maryborough, Gisborne, Eaglehawk, and Kangaroo Flat.<\/p>\n
Being on Storm\u2019s turf will be another huge test for the yellow and black.<\/p>\n
The Darryl Wilson-coached Storm has also hit back after an injury-riddled start to the season to now be fourth on a five and three record.<\/p>\n
Another win and Storm could jump above the third-placed Eaglehawk which faces the unbeaten Sandhurst this Saturday at the Borough\u2019s Canterbury Park.<\/p>\n
Strathfieldsaye captain Lachlan Sharp kicked seven goals in the latest victory at Maryborough\u2019s Princes Park.<\/p>\n
Inaccuracy was costly as Eaglehawk was beaten, 10.10 (70) to 9.13 (67) in last Saturday\u2019s match on Golden Square\u2019s ground at Fur Life Oval in Wade Street.<\/p>\n
The Hawks\u2019 run of defeats have been by margins of three, one, and three points.<\/p>\n
The winning streak for Sandhurst kept rolling, but a score of 119-34 against Castlemaine at Queen Elizabeth Oval was not as big a blowout as some fans thought it may be.<\/p>\n
Kangaroo Flat is back home at Dower Park to take on Golden Square.<\/p>\n
The Nathan Johns-coached Roos could be strengthened by the inclusion of former Greater Western Sydney Giants and later Hawthorn key forward Jonathon Patton.<\/p>\n
The number one pick in the 2011 AFL draft, Patton played 95 matches in the big league.<\/p>\n
Reigning premier Gisborne rolls toward the halfway mark on a two and six record and desperate to take the points on home turf at Gardiner Reserve against Maryborough.<\/p>\n
The Brad Fox-coached Bulldogs were within 17 points of South Bendigo at half-time last Saturday, but the Bloods then slammed on 10.5 to 1.8 in the final hour to win 131-63.<\/p>\n
South Bendigo heads south to Castlemaine\u2019s Camp Reserve to play the Magpies this Saturday and the Bloods\u2019 small forwards Steven Stroobants, Brock Harvey and Will Keck are in hot form.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
