Bunyip Strikers stun Rosebud

Eighth-placed Bunyip has stunned Rosebud in the men’s state league five competition, consigning the table-toppers to their first loss of the season.

The hosts defeated Rosebud 4-2, thanks in large part to a Mark Comini hattrick.

Bunyip were the front runners for the majority of the contest, leading 2-1 at halftime and able to build in the second half, with Thomas Thorwesten and Walid Benzina’s fresh legs assisting.

Meanwhile, ninth-placed Casey was all over bottom-placed Cleeland from the first whistle, winning 8-2.

The Panthers took a 6-0 lead into halftime before cruising thereafter, with Vincent Makota filling his boots with three goals, teammates Zain Ahmad and Antonio Fernandez managing two apiece.

Meanwhile, Pakenham succumbed 5-1 against Seaford, with Wesley Reis the sole goal scorer.
