A SECTION WRAP: R2

Reigning premier St Bede’s Mentone Tigers thrashed Old Scotch at Camberwell today, atoning for its two losses to the Cardinals last year. The Tiges, who are already in mid-season form, ran amok for four quarters, and only a six goal third term saved the home team from a triple figure defeat.
At Waverly Park, last week’s surprising winners De La Salle carried their super form into the first quarter against Uni Blues, slamming on ten goals to three before the first break. Unfortunately for the home team, that’s when the music stopped. The Varsity then outscored them by twelve goals to two to steal the points.
Rumours of Old Xaverians’ demise might be premature as they won comfortably over Old Ivanhoe at Chelsworth Park.The Red and Blacks conceded just two goals into the wind, with Nick Wynne leading a very tight defensive effort.
Collegians overcame a small quarter time deficit to beat Marcellin by 45 points at the Trott. Kivanc Cevic booted five in a best afield effort.
In their home-opener, Old Essendon stayed with Old Brighton for a half but couldn’t take it up to the Tonners beyond the long break.
