League Review | Bridgewater was too strong for an inaccurate Mitiamo in Saturday’s match of the day in round nine of the Bendigo Bank Loddon Valley Football Netball League’s senior footy action.
There was plenty at stake as third and fourth met on Mitiamo’s turf at John Forbes Oval.
Fourth going into the contest, Bridgewater won the first quarter, 4.3 to 1.7.
The Marcus McKern-coached Mitiamo hit back to win the next term, 23-20.
Led by the play of Andy Collins, Lachlan Allison and Brayden Stepien it was Bridgewater which capitalised on scoring chances as it added 4.3 to 1.5 in the crucial third term.
The Rick Ladson-coached Mean Machine eventually motored to a 102-79 victory and jumped to the third rung on the ladder.
