Blues topple Cutters in A-grade

There was no killer blow from Picola in the contest, the Blues slowly breaking away from the Timbercutters over the course of the game.

United took an 11-6 lead into quarter-time and extended it by a further two goals to lead 21-14 at the half.

The margin was 10 at three-quarter time and Picola sealed victory in all four periods with a 7-4 final term.

Progressing to 1-2 moves the Blues into 11th on the ladder.

This week's fixture against current cellar dweller Blighty will give the side a golden opportunity to level its season ledger at 2-2.

Meanwhile, Mathoura will have another opportunity to end its winless run as it battles fellow 0-3 side Waaia.
