A washed-out fixture was rescheduled for Wednesday night, under floodlights at Keith Bond Oval, with striker Sam Markoulis scoring all three goals.

Coach Gus Garcia made two substantial changes in the midfield, promoting two reserve graders to compensate for suspensions.

The real test comes next weekend in the local derby against Warilla Wanderers.
