Men’s Division One

After a string of thrilling wins, luck has finally turned against Langwarrin.

The Kangaroos have won a series of nail-biters this season. They took on Pines at Eric Bell Reserve on Saturday in what would go on to be another close one.

The Pythons and Kangaroos were neck-and-neck all day long. Pines went into the three-quarter break ahead by nine points. Langwarrin snuck ahead in the final term, but a late Pines goal sealed the win for the Pythons.

Final score: Pines 8.13 (61) def. Langwarrin 8.10 (58)

Sorrento also won a tight one on Saturday — the Sharks beat Mt Eliza at David Macfarlan Reserve.

The Sharks struggled to deal with William Antonie, who booted five goals to keep Mt Eliza in the hunt. Sorrento managed to hold off Mt Eliza, but if not for some final-quarter inaccuracy it may have been a different story.

Final score: Sorrento 9.11 (65) def. Mt Eliza 9.10 (64)

Frankston YCW have fallen a game behind ladder leaders Rosebud after a defeat to Dromana last weekend. A strong first and last quarter saw Dromana seal the win in front of their home crowd.

Final score: Dromana 14.7 (91) def. Frankston YCW 9.11 (65)

Sam Fowler kicked four goals for Dromana, with Sam Geurts also playing a blinder.

Rosebud smashed Mornington by 79 points to keep their momentum going. Kirk Dickson was best-on-ground, kicking three goals.

Edithvale-Aspendale beat Red Hill by 37 points to close out the round.

Men’s Division Two

Pearcedale emerged victorious in their second vs third clash against Chelsea on Saturday.

Chelsea Recreation Reserve hosted the match between two finals contenders. Pearcedale stunned the home crowd with a seven-goal-to-zero opening term.

Chelsea improved after quarter time, trimming the lead to two goals at the main break, but the damage had been done.

Final score: Pearcedale 14.10 (94) def. Chelsea 12.9 (81)

Pearcedale’s best: David Hussey, Huw Jones, Ryan Bastinac, Jordan Bastinac, Jack McGuiness

Bonbeach remain in the hunt for finals after a 29-point win over Rye at home last weekend. Crib Point also secured a vital 23-point victory over Seaford.

Undefeated Frankston Bombers notched up their 12th win of the year on Saturday. They pumped Tyabb 20.16 (136) to 5.2 (32) at Bunguyan Reserve.

Devon Meadows also delivered a dominant performance, crushing Karingal by 143 points after piling on 17 goals in the first half.

Somerville rounded out the weekend with a 117-point demolition of Hastings. Corey Battams and Mason de Wit kicked 10 goals between them.

Women’s Division One

After opening their season with 10 straight victories, Mornington have now lost two in a row.

Warragul Industrials became the first team to beat Mornington in Round 11. Last weekend, Mornington hosted Frankston and looked to bounce back.

The Dolphins proved a tough challenge. Mornington held a narrow lead at quarter time, but Frankston took control in the second quarter and led by 17 at the half.

Mornington fought back hard in the second half and got ahead late, but a last-minute goal from Frankston’s Emerald Wood sealed the upset.

Final score: Frankston 7.3 (45) def. Mornington 6.5 (41)

Karingal cruised to a 10-goal win over Bonbeach on Saturday morning, while Warragul Industrials beat Pearcedale on Sunday. Warragul now sits just behind Mornington on the ladder — separated by percentage only.
