AJAX, Mazenod impress in Premier B

St Kevins refused to take their foot off the accelerator ahead of finals as they dispatched Caulfield Grammarians to the tune of 128 points at Glenhuntly Oval. SKOB had contributors all over the ground as they piled on 26 goals to seven, with former Melbourne Demon Jordan Gysberts dominating with five goals in a best-on-ground performance. In stark contrast to the undefeated SKOB, the Fields sit on the bottom of the ladder with just two wins for the season.

Fitzroy registered their third win from the last four matches, defeating Parkdale Vultures by 14 points in a high scoring affair at Brunswick Street Oval. With 33 goals kicked for the match, the Roys turned a 12-point half time deficit around by kicking nine goals to five in the final two quarters. Corbin Stevic kicked four majors for the Roys, while Charlie Dillon did his utmost for the Vultures by snagging six of his own.

A 10-goal haul from Jake Lew has led AJAX to a 69-point victory against Hampton Rovers at Boss James Reserve. Lew’s efforts extends his lead at the top of the Premier B goal kicking leader board and with one match to go, he is certain to bring home the award. Due to a subpar percentage, AJAX are unlikely to make finals but can hold their head high and take momentum into the 2016 season.

Mazenod caused the upset of the round by defeating third-placed Old Melburnians by five points at Central Reserve this afternoon. Heading into the match with just four wins for the season, Mazenod put four quality quarters together and proved they will be a Premier B force come next season. Liam Riley was judged best afield for the winning side, while Redlegs’ Alexander Armstrong will be buoyed by his four goals heading into finals.

St Bedes/Mentone Tigers recorded a four-point victory in the Premier B match of the round against Old Brighton at Brighton Beach Oval this afternoon. With second playing fourth, Tigers forward Luke Velluto provided the difference between the two sides with six goals for the game. While ladder positions stay the same, the Tigers will be ecstatic with the fact they’ve now ensured second position.
