WRFL: Manor Lakes Storm keeps up hot finals pace

MANOR Lakes is showing no signs of flagging in its hunt for the double chance in Western Region Football League division 2 finals.

The Storm overcame wretched conditions on Friday night to blitz Braybrook by 134 points at Howqua Reserve.

The victory leaves the expansion club in third position.

The Storm conceded only two goals for the game, both in the second term.

In an attacking bonanza, there were four-goal hauls for Blake Pilkington and Josh Derich, while Justin Palmer, Ryan Taylor and Frank Pavez were among the better Storm players.

The Storm will visit Caroline Springs on Saturday.

Wyndhamvale has ambitions of swooping on the double chance if the Storm slips up in the final three rounds.

The Falcons kept in touch with a 154-point win over Laverton Magpies in a hugely one-sided contest at Wyndhamvale Reserve on Saturday.

The Magpies managed a solitary scoring shot, a goal in the first term, while the Falcons piled on 23 majors from 45 scoring shots.

Daniel Bunworth led the way with six goals and Devan Ellis produced a best-on-ground performance.

The Falcons face one of their toughest tests to date when they host Parkside on Saturday.

Glenorden remains front-runner in the chase for the minor premiership.

The Hawks cruised to a 40-point win over Sunshine Heights on the road at Ainsworth Reserve.

Chris Metcher booted a season-best five goals for the winners.

Sanctuary Lakes took care of bottom-of-the-ladder North Sunshine in a 79-point drubbing away at Dempster Park.

The Lampi boys – Jessi on the ball and Jordan with six goals – were outstanding for the Sharks.
