Yarraville Club has breathed life into its finals push with a five-wicket mauling of Seddon in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association senior division.
Entering the round at the bottom of the ladder, the Clubbers made sure it was a short stint in the cellar and dismantled the Dockers at Hanmer Reserve.
The Clubbers were on song with the ball, rolling Seddon for just 66.
New ball users Will Sheridan (5-23) and Emmett Bronca (3-23) were on top of their game for the Clubbers.
However, the Clubbers lost five wickets en route to the target with Justin Baker top scoring with 18.
Spotswood entered the top four with a hard-fought 10-run win over Strathmore at Lebanon Reserve.
The Woodsmen posted 9-137 off their 40 overs, thanks largely to Gene Maurice (54) and Declan O’Brien (49).
In division 1, Altona North got the better of Druids by four wickets, while Laverton went down to Airport West St Christophers by 10 runs.
In division 2, Newport-Digman beat Pascoe Vale Hadfield by 44 runs, but it was a disappointing weekend for Kingsville, losing to Altona Roosters by four wickets, and Williamstown CYMS, downed by Glenroy by 22 runs.
In division 3, West Newport had a huge win over East Keilor in a 118-run victory, while Footscray United and Williamstown Imperials both lost.
