How on earth did Frankston lose this game? Still dont believe it.Two easy shots at goal missed in the final 10 mins. Good grief....

A few highlights but the worst game of footy you would ever see...

Mitch McCarthy was superb. BOG by 100 yards,

Sterling effort by Frankston to almost pinch this game, leading all day until Box Hill hit the front for the first time half way through the last quarter, but in the end the Dolphs ran out of steam and just couldnt hold Box Hill against the wind. Box Hill  just too strong and too classy when it counted. Pittonet was outstanding for Box Hill, looks like one of those guys who is too good for the VFL but struggles in the AFL.

The wins are not on the board this year, and the statistics dont show it, but the amount of improvement in this Frankston team throughout the year has been huge. Collingwood would not want to take the Dolphs lightly next week...Good chance of Frankston getting a second win.

With good recruiting next year Frankston will be a very competitive team, they have a solid game plan and their structues are starting to hold, and with the right additions next year there will some wins on the board. Lets hope after that there will still be a VFL league to play in although it looks like Gilligan will be destroying the second tier leagues within a few years.

Not sure quite what to say. Very disappointed. The Blues started strongly and looked the better team early. Port talking by about 5 goals at the quarter time break. But the last quarter was a polar opposite. But port couldn't quite get over the line.

I'm going to continue this post tomorrow morning when I've had the chance to give it some thought.
