The Green Hose led all afternoon in a low scoring affair to take the points against the Eye Charts - BNOBSPC. Veteran David Landrigan booted five of the Xavs' eight goals.
Jon Smarrelli led the way for the Menages, as they pounded the lowly Lions in their R13 clash.
The WOX competed hard with fourth-placed Marcellin Sheagles, but could not go with the home team in the final stanza at Bulleen this morning.
Different day, same result. The U23 Old Xaverians bettered their elders again yesterday, defeating the Menages by 15 points.
