Wandin has scraped their way back onto the winner’s list with a nail-biting three-point win over Olinda-Ferny Creek at the Kennel.

It was a tight contest where no more then 3 goals separated the sides all day.

The bottom-of-the-ladder Bloods shocked the Dogs to start, coming out 2 points ahead at quarter time; 3.2, 20 to 2.4, 22.

Wandin fought back to take an 8-point lead at the main change, which was pegged back to only 3 points at the final break.

With the game up for grabs, both sides could’ve been made to rue their inaccuracy, each kicking 1.4 in the last quarter to keep the margin tight. A missed set shot from the Bloods and some tight and desperate Dog’s defending was enough to see the result go the way of the home side.

John Ladner, Patty Bruzzese, Harrison van Duuren, Cody Hirst, Chayce Black and Todd Garner were the top Dogs for the day.

Clinton Johnson chipped in with 3 goals, Jordan Jaworski, Aaron Mandl and Tom Merlino all snagged 2 and Ladner rounded off the goalkickers with 1 to his name.
