The men’s side lost 3-2 against Southern United and are eighth. In premier league reserves, the women’s side lost 2-0 to Footscray.

Rugby League

Bottom-of-the-table Northern Thunder remains without a win in Victorian Rugby League first grade after a 44-23 loss to Casey Warriors on Saturday. In second division, the Warriors beat the Thunder 22-12. Thunder is eighth on the ladder.

VFL

Northern Blues lost a thriller to Essendon in the VFL on Saturday. The Blues looked in control of the game at half-time when they were 25 points up, but the Bombers hit back to trail by only six at three-quarter time. The Bombers overran the Blues in the last term to win 11.10 (76) – 9.14 (68). Nick Graham pushed his case for an AFL recall as he was best for the Blues.
