AFTER seemingly being the main challenger to Geelong the Knight’s better players as was Jake Kalaj and Sam Falcons, Eastern Ranges now fi nds itself in a fi ght to keep Switkowski. alive its season. And, the encouraging aspect is that Northern didn’t have Dandenong Stingrays consigned the Ranges to a cut-throat to rely on its Vic Metro representatives Lennon, Marcus Semi Final clash against Northern Knights with its 43-point Bontempelli, Hugh Curnowa and Jesse Tardio to carry the Qualifying win. club. It is a match that Eastern must quickly move on from if it’s Eastern will gain some comfort from the fact it defeated to hold out the rampaging Knights. Northern during the home and away season, albeit back Northern comes into the Semi Final on the back of a in Round 4. crushing 58-point victory against Gippsland Power. Much has happened since that early encounter. Certainly, It was the Knights’ seventh win from its past nine games the direction of the two clubs has changed dramatically. with its two losses coming against Oakleigh Chargers (18-points) and Murray Bushrangers (three points). While Northern has struck form and momentum at the right end of the season, Eastern has to fi nd a way to regroup after losing its past two games. Calder dealt the Ranges a wake-up call with a 47-point defeat in the last home and away game and then Dandenong delivered a reality check last week. Admittedly, Eastern has been without star midfi elder Mitch Honeychurch the past two games, but he hasn’t played now since Round 15. While the inclusion of Honeychurch will provide a much needed spark, the Ranges can’t rely on one player to lift them into the Preliminary Final. Too much was left for too few against Dandenong. And, in most part it was left to the usual suspects – Ben Cavarra and Michael Apeness – to fl y the fl ag for Eastern. The Ranges will need an overall contribution if they’re to stop the charging Knights, which ended Gippsland’s season with a minimum of fuss. Northern’s dominance could be seen in many facets outside the fact it had 32 scoring shots to the Power’s 14. The margin could easily have blown out beyond 10 goals had the Knights’ conversion been better. While star forward Ben Lennon led the way with three goals, Northern had 11 individual goal kickers.
