ECHUCA v ROCHESTER
Rochester avoided a third straight loss with an emphatic victory against a hapless Shepparton United.
In a positive for the Tigers was the fact that its coach and a couple of other regulars are set to return to the team before finals.
Ruckman Sam Brennan was the star of the win while midfielder Ashley Watson, forward Steven Stroobants, James Gledhill and Matthew Palmer were others to contribute to the 100-plus point win.
Echuca is limping to the end of the season and defeat to Shepparton was probably seen as a lost opportunity for the Murray Bombers.
Simon Buckley, Scott Beattie, Joel Donehue, Bart Phillips, Nicholas McCann and Liam Wilkinson were the guys to play four quarters.
The Murray Bombers will have their work cut out against a very strong Tigers’ outfit and one charging towards another finals series.
