First weekend of winter football didn't disappoint.
- East Ringwood big statement win against reigning premiers Rowville. The real deal.
- Donny East put a fork in them. 3 games and 50% off 5th spot, season done.
- Unless Noble Park can pull off a shock win against Balwyn on Saturday, we might be already down to 6 teams contesting for the top 5 in Prem Div.
- Mitcham stun the previously unbeaten Park Orchards recording a 11 goal victory. They have now won 5 in a row with an average winning margin of 67 points
- Bayswater after such a promising start to the year slump to their 5th successive loss ending their finals chances.
- The Div1 top 5 looks set with only Mooroolbark a slim chance of breaking in from 6th spot.
- Templestowe defeat Mulgrave in a classic 8 point game to leapfrog them into 5th spot
- The top 3 look solid with Ringwood, Templestowe, Mulgrave and maybe East Burwood fighting out the battle for 4th and 5th spot.
- Any sugar hit from the coaching change at The Basin hasn't eventuated. They will be in Div 3 next year.
- Donvale win their 26th consecutive game recording a 20 point result over Fairpark, who again are playing nothing like a side getting relegated, but are on the bottom of the ladder at the turn.
- FTG get a win against Oakleigh and give themselves some relegation breathing space for now. New recruit Jordyn Flannery brother of captain Jack Flannery has impressed in his 2 games so far kicking 3 goals in each.
- Silvan find some form and almost upset Coldstream falling short by 4 points in a bit of a rivalry game. A big improvement on what has been a disappointing 3 weeks for them.
- Div 3 looks to be one division where a top 5 is going reward a team that probably isn't deserving of finals. The 5th spot is up for grabs but whoever fall into it, looks a fair bit off the top 4 currently.
- Nunawading defeat Forest Hill after a really disappointing game against CNMLOC last week, to jump off bottom spot. I don't think they would have beaten Forest Hill in over a decade at least.
- Kilsyth record an impressive win against Whitehorse ending their 5 game winning streak.
