La Trobe University’s 2015 resurgence continued as they defeated UHS-VU by 16 points at Brens Oval. Trailing by three points at the main break, La Trobe kicked six goals to four (as well as nine behinds) as they ran over the Vultures on their home turf. Liam Guy starred and was named BOG for his five majors for La Trobe, while Aaron Pincott was best for the Vultures.
After winning their first four games of the season, Canterbury have since mirrored that feat with losses after they went down to Elsternwick by 18 points at Elsternwick Park. Leading by seven points at half time, the Cobras could not contain the Wickers in the final two quarters as they kicked eight goals to four to close out the match. Justin Hunter piled on seven and took his overall tally to 34 for the year for the 11th-placed Wickers, while Rohan Walmsley kicked three and was named best for the Cobras who sit in sixth.
Albert Park led from start to finish and defeated Swinburne University by 17 at Beaurepaire Pavilion. Jack Amies and Mick Branelly combined for four goals and Tyson Cattle tore shreds in a BOG performance for the Falcons, while David Thwaites continued his stellar form in the ruck for the Razorbacks.
Glen Eira’s supreme season continued as they ran out 79-point victors against Aquinas at Packer Reserve. Michael Fletcher snagged one goal and was named BOG alongside a five-goal haul from Alex Erwin-Ross for the Saints. Phil Jurkovsky fought valiantly for the Bloods, who sit ninth spot on the ladder.
South Melbourne Districts proved too strong for Parkside, defeating the winless Red Devils by 30 points at Pitcher Park. Elliot Costello kicked three and Louis Beanland starred for the Swans, while Darren Gresham continued his hot form as the best for the losing side.
Hawthorn made it eight wins from eight rounds when they defeated Power House by 78 points at Ross Gregory Oval. Four each from David Tremewen and David Kennedy led the way for the ruthless Hawks’ outfit, while Jordan Haynes snagged three for Power House in his first match for the season.
