Grubbbers held scoreless for two and a half quarters

Ocean Grove was held scoreless in the first half against Queenscliff and has some serious soul searching to do going into the Battle of the Bridge clash against Barwon Heads this week.

In fact it took until the 13 minute mark of the third term to register a score – a behind – and the Grubbers had registered just two behinds at three-quarter time.

A six-goal last term saved the team from complete embarrassment, but the impressive Coutas also ran the game out well to win 17.13(115) to 6.5(41).

Grove has now lost four consecutive games since beating Modewarre in round 1.

The Grubbers face a nightmare fortnight with Barwon Heads and Geelong Amateur.

Izaac Grant bagged six goals for Queenscliff.

In the match of the season so far, Anglesea hung on to defeat a Barwon Heads by a point, 14.11(95) to 14.10(94).

Ayden Gras bottled six for the Seas in a superb display.

The Seagulls had nine players under 20 years of age with one of them – Jack Henderson – starring with six goals.

Geelong Amateur stayed unbeaten with a 17.12(114) to 5.7(37) win against Drysdale.

Tom Gribble and Blake Sutterby were best for Ammos while coach Sam Lloyd slotted through four majors.

Modewarre got its season well and truly back on track with an impressive 20.10(130) to 8.10(58) victory over Newcomb.

That makes it two in a row after dropping the first three for the Warriors.

Scott Morter kicked five for Modda while Dion Johnstone was again among the best for the Power.

Torquay has now won three in a row to sit second on the ladder, beating Portarlington 14.14(98) to 9.10(64).

William Montebello kicked six for the Tigers while Brendan Carlyon was named best.

Big man Scott Greenhough continues to excel for the Demons and Matthew Fromholtz threaded through four goals.
