Cobras, Dragons get home

Albanvale and Sunshine Heights both snuck home for wins in the Western Football League division 2 competition on Saturday.

The two thrillers highlighted the results in the division 2 competition.

Albanvale was at home to the Western Rams, who were searching for their second win of the season.

The Cobras used the wind well in the first quarter to lead by 29 points at quarter time.

The margin was still 26 points at the main break.

It was the Rams that did a lot of the attacking in the third quarter as they kicked six goals to three to reduce the margin to just six points at the last break.

The Cobras got the first goal of the final quarter before the Rams kicked the next two and managed to get in front.

A goal in the 12th minute from Reece Field put the Cobras back in front. Neither side was able to find another goal with the Cobras winning, 12.10 (82)-11.9 (75).

Field finished with four goals for the Cobras.

Josh Green and Jacob Maschewski were named their best.

The Cobras are now third on the ladder, with the Rams sitting in ninth.

Sunshine Heights only just got home against Braybrook in its match, winning 13.13 (91)-14.6 (90).

The Brookers led at each of the breaks, including having a 25 point lead heading into the final quarter.

The Dragons kicked five goals to one in the final quarter to come over the top for the win.

The winning point came after the siren.

Jackson Viola kicked three goals for the Dragons, while four other players had two each.

Matt Malual and Elliot Rosado were named the Dragons best.
