LANGWARRIN have gone 3-0 to start the 2021 season.
The Kangaroos took on Karingal at Ballam Park Reserve on Saturday. Both sides wrestled for control throughout the day in a scrappy affair.

Both sides only managed to put one goal each on the scoreboard in the final quarter. Langwarrin held on to win 8.4 (52) to 7.16 (58).
Blake Peach and Zach Andrewartha were Langwarrin’s best.
Rye also scored a third consecutive win to start their season. They took the points from Somerville.

ON a cold, wet night in Mount Eliza two years ago, Kalinda Nheu died when the driver of the yellow utility in which she was a passenger lost control, crossed the median strip, and skidded into the path of an approaching Ford Territory.
The impact of the collision killed the 19-year-old and the male driver of the ute instantly, while the driver of the Ford was seriously injured.
Somerville Highway Patrol police last week shared a video of the consequences of the tragic collision on Nepean Highway, opposite Mount Eliza Way.
The 160-year-old Sydenham Railway Station could be given a new lease on life.
The Mornington Railway Preservation Society has submitted an application to Brimbank council to move the building to its heritage tourist railway.
The building, which has not been used for the past 19 years, is owned by QIC, which owns Watergardens Shopping Centre.
Society president Andrew Swaine said the group had been keen to add a railway station to its site for several years.
“One of the things we don’t have, and would like to get, is a station,” Mr Swaine said.
“We’ve been looking at a number of different stations that we could relocate.

MORNINGTON recovered from a 3-1 deficit to beat Mazenod 5-3 at Dallas Brooks Park on Saturday and retain top billing in State 1 South-East.
Mazenod’s Navin Vellupilay opened the scoring with a header from a corner in the 16th minute but 10 minutes later Milos Lujic equalised after holding off his marker then turning and striking the ball into the bottom left-hand corner of the net.
A Dominic D’Angelo penalty put the visitors 2-1 up and the impressive Luke Gallo capitalised on a defensive error to make it 3-1 after 41 minutes.
