A race for top spot in Mininera and District Football League will gather pace this weekend as leading outfits attempt to consolidate strong starts to the season.
Early ladder leaders Woorndoo-Mortlake, Tatyoon and Great Western are all unbeaten three games into the season with each facing different tests on Saturday.
One of the biggest games of the weekend is a clash at Alexandra Oval in Ararat where Ararat Eagles will put Woorndoo-Mortlake’s form under the microscope.
The Eagles, sitting fifth, overwhelmed Hawkesdale-Macarthur to the tune of 100 points last week, while the Tigers maintained their spotless form with a 90-point victory against Lismore-Derrinallum.
