Match Reviews | There were plenty of interesting results to come out of Round 10, as our clubs kicked off the back half of the home and away season for 2025!
A depleted North Ballarat outfit found themselves overwhelmed by a near full-strength East Point on Saturday, with the Roos storming to a 78-point victory in a dominant display at home.
The Roosters entered the clash without key players Brock Leonard and Cam McCallum, while East Point had a late change with Micka Rotumah-Onus ruled out following an incomplete warm-up. But that didn't slow the Roos, who bolted out of the gates to take a 27-point lead at quarter time.
From there, the home side never looked back. East Point’s pressure and efficiency only improved as the game wore on, restricting North Ballarat to just 3.7 for the remainer of the match, while piling on scoreboard pressure of their own with 17.16 (118).
The four points were crucial for the Roos, lifting them back into third place on the ladder, and the percentage boost could prove decisive in the race for finals positioning later in the season.
While conversion has been a concern in past weeks, East Point looked far more composed in front of goal. Though seven rushed behinds slightly skewed the scoreboard at first glance, the signs were promising across the ground.
