The Dolphins continued to dominate in the 3rd quarter but couldn't put in on the scoreboard eventually kicking 3.5 to the Bullants 1.2 to lead by 39 points at the final change.

Despite the Bullants kicking 6 goals to 2 in the last quarter Frankston held on for a well deserved 13 point victory.

Paul Rebeschini and Ricky Morris were outstanding for the Dolphins today as they help shut down the Bullants midfield. The play over the day to big "Normie" Clarke running goal late in the 1st quarter.

The only disappointment was the report of Ricky Morris for misconduct in the last quarter.
