DIVISION ONE
THE Stonecats remain on top of the MPNFL ladder after another impressive victory on the weekend.
Frankston YCW played host to Rosebud at John Coburn Oval.
The Stonecats raced out of the blocks in the first quarter. A five goals to one first term put them in the box seat early.
Things didn’t get any easier for Rosebud in the second quarter, as YCW continued to put pressure on. A four goals to none second term saw the Stonecats go into half time with a 56 point lead.
Rosebud showed some fight after half time, but the damage was already done. Frankston YCW ended up winning by 69 points 16.15 (111) to 6.6 (42).
Matthew Troutbeck and Christian Tsiampas kicked four goals each for the victors.
Frankston Bombers scored a big win on Saturday, defeating Sorrento in a hard-fought match.
Both sides traded blows in a tense contest. The Bombers led by just two at half time, and six at three-quarter-time.
With the game in the balance, the Bombers held their nerve. A seven goal final term saw Frankston Bombers get the win 12.12 (84) to 17.12 (114).
Alex Harnett and Khan Haretuku were named the Bombers’ best, having kicked four goals each.
Mt Eliza got the better of Dromana in a low scoring affair at Emil Madsen Reserve.
Both sides struggled to hit the scoreboard throughout the afternoon. Despite kicking just three goals in the second half, the Redlegs managed to win 7.13 (55) to 5.9 (39).
Elliot Simmons was named Mt Eliza’s best for the day.
Edithvale-Aspendale worked hard on Saturday, but weren’t able to back up their good win from last week. They were defeated by Red Hill, but were competitive throughout the day.
Edi-Asp led at the first break, before the Hillmen wrestled back momentum. Red Hill secured the win 13.6 (84) to 15.15 (105). Jake Mold and Chris Irving were among the best.
Bonbeach has a good day at home, dominating Pines 17.15 (117) to 4.4 (28).
