SUNSHINE COME OUT ON TOP

Sunshine have pushed their way into the top four after a massive 16.22(118) to 5.7(37) victory over North Footscray in Round 7 of the Division 2 competition.

Fabian Brancatisano was the standout player of the game, kicking seven goals for Sunshine with a best on ground performance.

Newport were triumphant over Wyndhamvale in their fourth win in a row in Round 7 after taking down the Falcons in a 15.9(99) to 6.8(44) victory.

Youseff El Hawli and Abdul Jawad were the leading goal scorers for Newport, with five and four goals each.

Parkside have continued on with their hot streak in Round 7, knocking Albion down to third place on the ladder after defeating the side 13.10 (88) to 8.7 (55).

Albion came out strong in the first quarter, kicking two goals to Parkside’s zero. However Parkside came back with something to prove in the second quarter, kicking four goals this time to Albion’s zero.
