ROVERS BEATEN AT LAST

The weather certainly didn’t prevent some big scores being kicked across the Divisions. However it was the Division 1 top of the table clash at Williamstown that saw the CY’s inflict a first loss of 2013 on Hampton Rovers. 
Rovers still have top spot but will be thankful that a prospective final against the CY’s will be played at a neutral venue as they went down to the home side by 14 points. 
Elsewhere in Division 1 Ormond continued their march toward a finals berth as they accounted for Bulleen Templestowe by 23 points. 
MHSOBs crushed Glen Eira in the match between 9th and 10th. The 72 point win for the Unicorns might give them the confidence to build on for a late charge to escape the relegation places.

In one of the lowest scoring matches of the day, Old Eltham beat Yarra Valley 20 to 13 to move above the Bushrangers into second spot of Division 2.
Old Paradians had a fantastic win at Ivanhoe by a goal to move above them on the table. Paradians move out of the relegation places and jump to 7th. Ivanhoe drop to 8th.
