No one cares.

Can't remember the final score ( no scoreboard) but Sturt won by a fair bit in the end. Turned it on in the last quarter and won by 8-9 goals I'd wager. Very swirly winds resulted in some poor shots on goal, especially from the Blues.

Blues totally dominated first half, Eagles looked aimless and ineffective. 3rd term and Ronny must have had a few words as the Hybrids' tackles stuck and Sturt began to struggle with added pressure. Sturt had a handy breeze in the last but lifted a notch to win easily.

Only paid serious attention to the Blues I'm afraid so better players would have been McGlone, Mitchell Farmer, Evan Hurse, Wicksy and Fittock who was possibly our best all day. Fitzgerald looked the goods in the forward line in the first half but slipped a bit when Chambo eventually came on. Perrie played smart footy (yeah, I never thought I'd say that either) and looked pretty classy not to mention fit. 'Frank' Thring did some exciting things and I like his movement into the forward line. Cubillo was starring early but looked a bit tired towards the end. Herring was v disappointing early but played better when Sarge was benched.

Good signs for Sturt - continued worry is lack of big men should Feasty go down. Apparently Big Fabs is doing ok for the Puffs and we may not see much of him. Angus Kurtze is still a bit slight to carry the ruck. We need Gregory back to FB as well.

In the Ressies it was good to see Hurley get through, McDonald and Andy Read really impressed. Johncock could be that big man I mentioned and Sharples looked like he will definitely get league action this year.

Sturt by about 6 goals. Was 17 goals to 11 but alot of points by both sides. Was about 2 goals difference 3 minutes into last quarter then the Blues kicked away strongly. Eagles played 21 Sturt played 24 as happens in trials - Sturt would be happy - Eagles poor first half but excellent third quarter - good hit out - both teams would have got what they wanted to see out of the game.

Eagles, like most quality teams, are one that you pay very little attention to their pre-season form

[Rucciangelo]

We all know this was a trial game.
Where I was sitting, watching with some great friends, just enjoying the beautiful weather and the free entertainment, there were supporters around in full swing season mode with abuse and applause. My god I thought I was going to have to perform CPR to some of these both elderly and obese Eagles supporters.
I say good luck to you people and I hope you make it through the season.

LOL .. Whilst we all have these supporters it's great to know they keep coming along ... The day they stop is the day our comp has something to worry about (both for the SANFL and the fans who enjoy watching them carry on).

So you didn't pay any attention to the Sturt cheer squad yelling something that only they could understand.
And footy is stress relief
But it is the 1st trail game of the year so not much to read into it.

Very true CP with some of the better WWT players sitting in the stands like cica Mackenzie etc.

An Eagle supporter walked past me after the game and said "That was awful"!
I thought it was pretty good!

Make up your mind mate,, does it mean much to you or not ?

I think they were sitting next to Weatherald, Nelson, Coad, Copping and Hurley

Ahhh, footy season's started, Sturt supporters are excited about preseason form and are abusing Eagles supporters, some things never change.
All was civil in Queanbeyan though.
