Tooradin-Dalmore has warmed up for its biggest test of the season with a 24.14.158 to 4.8.32 thumping of Garfield as Beswick Street.

Unless our eyes are deceiving us, the Seagulls rattled on an incredible 13-goal second term to totally put the contest to bed.

Stewie Scanlon continued his dangerous form of late, booting eight majors, while Julian Suarez with four was the main focal point on the ground. Scanlon, Jimmy Trezise and Piva Wright were brilliant for the Gulls and will take some great form into this week’s classic contest against Inverloch.

Garfield’s best, Joel Batson, Jonty Bow and Lachie Sauze will be looking for a more competitive team performance when the Stars head to Kooweerup this Saturday.
