DIVISION ONE

FRANKSTON Bombers upset Bonbeach in a thriller at Greg Beck Oval on Saturday.

The Bombers had to work hard to secure the four points, overcoming a 25 point half-time deficit. They couldn’t afford to let any of their opportunities slip, claiming victory by scoring nine goals in the second half without a behind.

Frankston Bombers ended up winning by just two points 12.3 (75) to 10.13 (73). Ryan Marks-Logan was Frankston’s finest with a three goal performance. Joseph Fisscher impressed for Bonbeach with a three goal effort of his own.

Edithvale-Aspendale are finally off the mark in 2021. They won their first game for the season by defeating Pines at Eric Bell Reserve.

Edi-Asp held a lead throughout the day, but the contest was close. Heading into the final term the Pythons trailed by five.

Pines only managed to kick one goal in the final term. Edithvale-Aspendale held their nerve, and ran out 11 point winners 9.5 (59) to 12.8 (80).

Nick Carlon, Blake Ross, and Sam Monaghan were Edithvale-Aspendale’s best. The club celebrated its 100th birthday this week.

Sorrento were at their best on Saturday, defeating Dromana is an impressive display.

A six goals to zero third term put the game beyond all doubt. Sorrento won by 65 points – 8.8 (56) to 17.19 (121).

Nick Corp was best afield, booting four goals for the Sharks. James Hallahan and Shannon Gladman kicked three each.

Frankston YCW secured their spot on top of the ladder with a win over Red Hill on Saturday. The Stonecats defeated the Hillmen by 29 points.

Mt Eliza scored a good win on the road against Rosebud, winning 9.6 (60) to 11.15 (81).
