The Northern Blues will return to your television screens when they host Sandringham at Preston City Oval on Saturday.

For the first time in 2016, a Blues game will feature live on Channel 7’s VFL coverage, with the team of Jason Bennett, Campbell Brown, Nigel Carmody and Abbey Holmes broadcasting live from 2pm on Saturday.

After three straight wins, Northern face a big test against Sandringham, who sit at third place on the VFL ladder.

Match preview and teams

Both teams are coming off the bye and come into the clash in good form, being undefeated since the middle of May.

The two sides have produced some big moments in recent seasons, with Chris Judd fronting up for the game in 2014 while the Blues prevailed in a three-point thriller early last year.
