At Cramer St the Northern Blues could not hold off a strong second half performance by the Bombers to go down by 8 points. Alexander Aurrechio (USA)(Al to his mates) made his senior VFL debut for the Blues and looked right at home changing into the ruck off the bench.

Kurt Heatherley (NZ) continued his good form at full back for Box Hill in their 23 point win over Sandringham. Jason Holmes (USA) again racked up the hit-outs for the Zebras finishing with 35 in an impressive ruck display.
