Hepburn belts Clunes

01 Jun, 2010 12:06 PM
HEPBURN celebrated Daniel James' 100th senior game in fine style, belting an injury-depleted Clunes by 191 points on Saturday.

Traditionally, the two sides face off for the Bing Baker Cup and it was the Burras who slammed on 10 first quarter goals to set up the massive win.

Once they had the thirst for some much-needed percentage, the Burras were relentless in keeping the scoreboard ticking over.

Lee Cox again had a memorable game churning out another 11 goals to take his tally to 57 from six matches.

At times his understanding with Andy McKay bought back memories of North Melbourne's Krakouer brothers of the 1980s.

Jarrod James again racked up the possessions through the midfield and, while resting up forward, fed off Dan O'Halloran to finish the day with five goals.

As the ground started to get a little boggy, Hepburn's quick movement of the ball didn't falter, pleasing coach Shane Robertson.

Co-captain Alan Ware and Trevor Johnson repelled whatever came their way, linking up well with the likes of Anthony Baker, Jarrod James and O' Halloran.

Hepburn controlled the ruck, with Brad Hall making the most of his opportunity, finding his team-mates on several occasions.

Dan Chapman's game was also one to warm the hearts of supporters.

Chapman is now back to the former captain everyone knew before a major injury halted his blossoming career.

All in all it was a pleasing day at the football if you were a Hepburn supporter. The club now looks forward to hosting big improvers Springbank at the Laurie Sullivan Reserve this Saturday.
