The boys will be looking to put last week’s performance behind them when they run out against Werribee this Saturday afternoon.

A win will be crucial for the team who currently sit in 7th place, hanging onto their top eight position by percentage.

Werribee are sure to come out firing, as they look to make up for a 31-point loss and also push up into the top eight.

VFL listed players Sam Heavyside and Nash Holmes were both impressive against Sandringham last week, and coaches will be expecting Jayden Laverde and Conor McKenna to hit the scoreboard once again.

The game will kick off at 2:10PM at Avalon Oval in Werribee.

Fans who can't make the trip will be able to tune in and watch on Channel 7 this Saturday.
