Mornington scrape through for the win
MORNINGTON got the win in a one-point thriller on ANZAC Day.
The Bulldogs played Devon Meadows at Glover Reserve. The Panthers were boosted by the addition of former AFL star Brett Deledio.
The Bulldogs were the better team in the first half, however their wastefulness in front of goal was costing them. Despite having 11 more scoring shots, Mornington only took a 21 point lead into the main break.
Devon Meadows cut the lead down to eight heading into the last quarter, and nearly did enough to claw over the line. Mornington just held on to claim a nail biting 9.4 (58) to 8.11 (59) win.
