THE gap between top and bottom was evident on Monday when powerhouse Bendigo East won the most one-sided game of the BBD midweek pennant season against South Bendigo.
East improved to 10-0 with a 55-shot thrashing of South, winning 94-39 at home.
The Beasties’ dominance was led by a 41-8 demolition by the rink of Judy Davey – the competition’s No.1-ranked – against Joy Warfe.
Elsewhere, Golden Square’s struggles continued as it slumped to a fifth-straight defeat, this time against Kangaroo Flat.
The Flat prevailed 77-62 at home to square its ledger at 5-5 and, having one stage been 2-4, is back within one point of the top four.
Castlemaine maintained its position in the top four thanks to a tight three-shot win over second-placed Bendigo at home.
Having copped a 28-shot hiding off Bendigo back in round three, the Maine turned the tables to triumph 61-58.
And Eaglehawk extended its winning streak to four, defeating Inglewood 75-63.
