Grubbers home in thriller

Ocean Grove put a 10-point break between it and fourth placed Modewarre in Bellarine Netball League on Saturday.

The thrilling three-goal win means Ocean Grove is one and a half games clear of its nearest A Grade rival.

Nikki Cooke bagged 47 goals as the Grubbers continued their unbeaten start to the B Grade season.

In round six, the Grubbers had some quality wins throughout the senior and junior grades on their annual Pink Day, which was a massive success.

Goal attack Ashton O’Brien was best on court with a scintillating performance as the Grubbers opened up a six-point gap between it and fourth placed Modewarre.

Ocean Grove and Geelong Amateur are the only unbeaten teams in B Grade while Ocean Grove’s C Grade side is also undefeated after a thrilling two-goal win against Drysdale.

Likewise the Grubbers’ D and E Grade sides have yet to be beaten.
