Biggest win puts premiers on top

WEDDERBURN has moved to top spot on the North Central ladder after a 30-goal victory over Donald.

Saturday’s win for the Redbacks, the reigning premiers, was their biggest this season after close tussles in the opening rounds.

Holly Lockhart was again named in the best players, continuing her strong influence on play while 2022 league best and fairest Aliza Lockhart was also among leading contributors.

Loddon rival Boort also continued its unbeaten start to the season with a nine-goal win over Wycheproof Narraport.

The Pies were challenged in the first half when the visiting Demons had an advantage on the scoreboard.

Goalkeeper Grace Hosking was named the best player as Boort put on 26 goals in the second half to the Demons’ 16.
