Wantirna South goal-scorers Woodgate and Halstead continued their completely dominant starts to the 2019 Premier Division season, scoring 41 goals and 26 goals respectively to comprehensively defeat the Boronia Hawks. The prolific Devils shooters blew the Hawks out of the water early, establishing a 28-goal lead by half time before cruising home to a 30-67 victory.

Lilydale survived a scare from Blackburn Red to continue their winning ways. The Falcons led by four goals at half-time before a 13-9 third term saw the Red tie the game heading into the fourth. However, Lilydale’s three-pronged attack of Luiyf (19 goals), Murphy (15 goals) and Smith (nine goals) proved the difference as the Falcons piled on 14 goals in the final term to secure a 43-36 victory.
