DIVISION TWO

MORNINGTON’S good start to the 2021 season continued with a win over Chelsea on Saturday.

The Seagulls got off to an early lead, taking a 15 point advantage into quarter time. By the half time break, Mornington had grabbed hold of the lead.

The Bulldogs led by just two points heading into the final term, but held on to claim a hard-fought win.

Mornington defeated Chelsea 7.9 (51) to 9.7 (61). Jackson Calder kicked three goals for the Bulldogs. Matthew Caine was named best-on-ground.

Langwarrin’s undefeated run in 2021 remains intact after a big win over Crib Point.

The Kangaroos had little trouble dispatching the Magpies. They ended up winning comfortably 9.8 (62) to 20.12 (132).

Joshua Dormer was one of Langwarrin’s best. He scored three goals on the day.

Devon Meadows came from behind in the final quarter to defeat Karingal by six points at Ballam Park Reserve.

The Bulls led by seven heading into the final quarter, but were overrun by the impressive Panthers.

Tyabb were held scoreless in the first half of what turned into a miserable clash against Somerville on Saturday.

The result was never in question, as Somerville flexed their muscle against the Yabbies. Somerville won by 133 points 3.1 (19) to 21.26 (152).

Somerville’s Ryan Gillis kicked more than double Tyabb’s total on his own. He scored seven majors.

Seaford and Hastings rounded out the winner’s list with victories over Pearcedale and Rye respectively.
