Sebastopol really will be kicking themselves after letting slip a golden opportunity to pick up its second win of the season given the amount of play they had in the clash against Redan.
Statistics provided by Premier Data show the Burra had 90 more disposals on the day and 25 ore marks, but weren't able to get the job done where it mattered most on the scoreboard.
The loss of Lachlan Cassidy was a huge blow to the Burra. Up until his injury he had 29 possessions and, despite playing less time than everyone else, he still finished with the highest ranking points on the day.
Redan would be thrilled with the even contribution across the field with Rory Gunsser's 26 touches and Lachie George's 25 the leading possession winners for their team. Mary Boyer's 19 touches, 11 marks and three goals were also important in the 11-point win
