ROSEBUD notched up another win on Saturday, getting the better of Frankston YCW.
A five-goals-to-one first term put Rosebud in control. The Stonecats fought back in the second quarter, but their hopes were dashed after half-time. The Stonecats were held goalless in the third term. Rosebud ran out winners 11.9 (75) to 7.8 (50). Callum White booted four goals for Rosebud. Zac Maynard, Liam Tidd, William Hartung, Campbell Hustwaite, and Mitchell White were named their best. Christian Tsiampas scored four goals for the Stonecats. Rosebud sits on top of the ladder with five wins to their name. Edithvale-Aspendale sits just behind them on percentage after a gritty win over Pines.
Pines hosted Edi-Asp at Eric Bell Reserve. Spectators watched a very scrappy first term – Edithvale-Aspendale scored the only goal of the quarter. Edithvale-Aspendale opened up a lead in the second quarter, and managed to hold that throughout the day. Edi-Asp beat Pines 8.4 (52) to 9.13 (67).
Kurt Lo Po, Tarkyn Wyett, Lewis Diggins, Kyle Yorke, and Charlie Martello were the Eagles’ best. Tyrone Vickery and Max Walker each scored two goals.
