The Red 'n' Black Machine rolled on at Sandringham on Sunday morning, shrugging off the CYs' challenge to win by 40 points.

It took a while for the team to function at its best on a ground that was unfamiliar. After half time, the chances of a close finish evaporated by the minute as Rushie's Rookies found their rhythm and kicked away.

"Senator" Ted Kennedy again led the goalscorers, while Harry MacIsaac was nominated best afield from a cast of strong characters.

This week, the Xavs lie in wait for the winner of the clash between Old Brighton and these same Willsters.

Goal Kickers: E. Kennedy 4, H. Woodhouse, D. Fitzgerald, W. Stevens, W. Bowen, H. MacIsaac, E. Niall

Best Players: H. MacIsaac, K. Walford, S. Hansen, T. Dunne, E. Niall, S. Noonan
