BENDIGO LEAGUE

GOLDEN Square's unbeaten run in the Addy Iso-Season ended at the hands of arch-rivals Sandhurst in Saturday's round 14.

In what was a grinding contest where the two flag contenders were nip and tuck all afternoon, a late goal from the Dragons' Matt Thornton clinched a four-point victory for Sandhurst.

With his side trailing by two points, Thornton took a towering contested mark 15m out and converted the goal with 45 seconds left on the clock to give Sandhurst a 10.10 (70) to 9.12 (66) victory, meaning the Dragons, who improve to 12-2, have now beaten every side in the Bendigo league.

Elsewhere, Kyneton lifted itself off the bottom of the ladder with a commanding 67-point win over Maryborough at the Showgrounds.

Eaglehawk recorded its biggest win of the season, blowing Castlemaine away early at Canterbury Park on the way to a 90-point win.

The in-form Strathfieldsaye is now on the competition's best winning streak of seven in a row after disposing of South Bendigo by 74 points, while Gisborne kicked away from Kangaroo Flat after half-time to win by 38 point at Gardiner Reserve.

HEATHCOTE DISTRICT

Mount Pleasant caused a boilover in the Heathcote District league with a big upset against Lockington-Bamawm United.

Heading into their clash at Lockington with just three wins on the board, the underdog Blues produced a stellar performance to defeat the second-placed Cats by six points, 14.10 (94) to 13.10 (88).

After winning their first eight games the Cats have now lost three of their past five and need to regain their spark in the run to the finals.

There are no such problems for Leitchville-Gunbower, though. The Bombers' impressive 93-point win over Heathcote was their sixth win in a row.

The Saints have now lost four in a row by a combined 273 points, but are still two games inside the top five.

White Hills was unable to get out of its enduring rut, losing its seventh on the trot after going down to Colbinabbin by 46 points, while Huntly's 17.16 (118) to 9.9 (63) win over Elmore at home elevated the Hawks off the bottom of the ladder.

For the second time in four games Pyramid Hill escaped with a one-point win in the Loddon Valley league - this time against Calivil United.

In an identical scoreline to their one-point win over Newbridge in round 11, the Bulldogs edged out the Demons 11.11 (77) to 11.10 (76) at Mitchell Park.

Mitiamo provided flag favourite Bridgewater with its stiffest challenge of the season so far.

The Superoos led Bridgewater by six points at three quarter-time, but the Mean Machine with the wind in the final term kicked 4.2 to 1.3 to prevail by 11 points and remain unbeaten.

The loss ended the Superoos' five game winning streak and they have fallen a game outside the top five after Bears Lagoon-Serpentine and Newbridge both recorded round 14 wins.

The Demons have hit the skids with three losses in their past four games after they had one stage been 9-1 and three games clear in top spot.
