Bunyip has started to generate momentum into its season in the Men’s State League 5 South season, backing up its 6-5 thriller with a 5-1 win over Pakenham.
The hosts were favoured to beat a Pakenham side which has been forced to overcome a series of struggles in recent times and never gave their local rivals a sniff.
Bunyip found the back of the net thrice by halftime, with Liam Jones scoring a hattrick in the commanding victory.
Liam Lenders and Tynan North were Bunyip’s other goal kickers, while for Pakenham, Vasileios Haldezos found the back of the net.
Pakenham has now lost its first four games of the season and faces another stiff test this weekend against the undefeated Seaford, while Bunyip have the table-topping Rosebud.
