I'm going to visit my mother (who lives at Werribe) for lunch on Saturday. When I have done my Easter duty I'll slip over to Chirnside Park, might not get there for the start

Make sure all of you come down, going to be a great day at Chirnside Park. Our first home game for season 2006.

Could of almost tossed a coin for that match, two quality sides, havent seen weribee yet this year but williamstown will be a very good side this year

Even though we lost, probably one of the best two or three games of VFL football I have seen since joining Werribee last year. Was a great game to watch.

Yeh, I enjoyed it too, bcarbonaro. Being a Collingwood supporter, I usually watch Williamstown all of the time now. Never was interested in VFL football a couple of years ago, but now I love it. The standard is exceptional. Lawry was fantastic today. He has really taken his game to a new level ever since Dukesy left. I thought Werribee played a better brand of footy, but Williamstown had talent to burn. If you ask me who has the better list, it would be Williamstown and they proved that today. I can't wait until the next encounter. It has been marked and filed on my notepad as a must see game.

Good to see a close high scoring game. Must have been a frenetic first quarter with 13 goals scored. What was the crowd estimate?

I think Williamstown used 5 extra AFL listed players in their side than Werribee had. The Bees were more 50/50 split, and the strength of Willy's VFL list shone through in the reserves where a ton of class players were running around. A fair to say probably a couple of blokes who be weekly fixtures in the senior side at most other VFL clubs. I'm with Ben though it was a great game. Best game of footy I have watched in a long time. The backwards play on worked a treat in the last five minutes and kept the game exciting til the end.

The Williamstown reserves, very strong as Footyman says and they have been in the grand final or won it many times within the last few days. Why can't more of these players be given an opportunity to play some football, maybe a few selection issues here?
