Essendon 9, Doncaster 7 

Six runs in the first inning propelled the Bombers to a two run victory against visiting Doncaster. Essendon gave up a run in the first, two in the second, one in the fourth, two in the sixth and one in seventh yet added one each in the second, fifth, and sixth to provide the winning margin. 

Malvern 8, Footscray 7 

In a back-and-forth affair, the Braves outlasted the Bulldogs, 8-7, at Wadsawoth Field. Malvern started quickly plating three runs in the first. Undaunted, Footscray answered immediately in the top of the second scoring four times. Typical of this wild game, the Braves retook the lead in the second with two runs and led 5-4 after two frames. The Bulldogs then scored single markers in the third and fourth to lead 6-5 entering the bottom of the fifth. It was there when the match irrevocably turned as Malvern scored three times to take an 8-6 advantage. Footscray scraped one more run across in the top of the seventh but on this day it was not enough. 

Springvale had a bye this week.
