Amongst the best players in a 92-point victory over Point Cook. Collected 22 possessions and added a couple goals as the Vikings notched their 13th win of the season.

Spencer Johnson – Altona

Ran out for the first time in more than a month and spent time at both ends of the ground. Moved forward in the second half and kicked a goal. Finished with 18 disposals and four tackles.

A good showing in a 29-point triumph over Yarraville Seddon. Kicked two majors and now has multiple goals in five straight games. Ended the day with 22 disposals and nine marks.

Harrison White- Werribee Districts

Not as impactful as recent weeks but did some nice things and competed hard against some big bodies when thrown in the middle in a 53-point loss to league leaders Caroline Springs.

GEELONG FOOTBALL LEAGUE

Gennaro Bove – Newtown & Chilwell

Bagged a season-best three goals to be in the best players in a comfortable win over North Shore. Tallied 16 disposals and seven tackles and showed progress with his running patterns.

Flynn Young - Grovedale

Made every touch count with good decision making and execution in a 13-point loss to Leopold.  Kicked three goals, was terrific in the air and used his body well in one-on-ones. One of the best for the Tigers.

Josh Porter – Grovedale

Copped close attention against the Lions but worked hard all day playing forward and in the ruck. Presented well, made good decisions and impressed defensively with several big tackles.

Toby Mahoney – Bell Park
