Robinson splits sticks to 99 goals

Millicent’s goal-scoring machine Gene Robinson fell heartbreakingly short of reaching the magic 100 on home turf against North Gambier on Saturday, but the chase is not finished.

Football fans attending this weekend’s East Gambier v Saints match at McDonald Park can be confident they will witness history in the final round of Western Border football.

Despite fighting a sterling battle with North Gambier defender Jake Schutz, Robinson put on a show to produce an eight-goal haul last weekend.

The effort leaves him just one straight kick away from becoming the second man to break triple figures in the WBFL during the 21st century.
