Dandenong Thunder 3 (Liam Kearney, Veton Korcarevski, Luke Sherbon)
Oakleigh Cannons 1 (Ricky Diaco)
@ George Andrews Reserve

 DANDENONG Thunder returned to winning ways with an entertaining 3-1 win over Oakleigh.

Midfielder Liam Kearney opened the scoring in the 39th minute, before veteran striker Veton Korcarevski doubled their lead six minutes into the second half.

Ricky Diaco pulled a goal back for the Cannons but Luke Sherbon ensured there would not be a comeback by restoring the two-goal buffer on 79 minutes.

Thunder are unbeaten in five and have closed the gap on the first-placed Cannons to two points.

 
Hume City 1 (Zoran Petrevski)
Melbourne Knights 1 (Josip Magdic)
@ Broadmeadows Valley Park

 JOSIP Magdic was on the scoresheet to earn the Melbourne Knights a second draw in as many weeks, this time a 1-1 result at Hume City.

 Hume striker Zoran Petrevski had given the hosts the lead before Magdic levelled 11 minutes into the second period.

City are fifth following the loss, while the Knights have edged further away from the relegation zone.


Northcote City 5 (Trent Rixon (3), Jason Trifiro, Glen Trifiro)
South Melbourne 0
@ John Cain Memorial Park

 A HAT-TRICK from star striker Trent Rixon helped Northcote City to a 5-0 thrashing of South Melbourne.

 Rixon hasn’t been as prolific as he was last season but his fifth-minute opener, along with two second half goals, sent him to six goals this campaign.

Brothers Jason and Glen Trifiro maintained their strong run of form with second-half strikes as City moved into third on the table.

South are now winless in three and sit in fourth ahead of a trip to Green Gully in round 12.
