Darley got its third win of the season, while it was a tough day for Bacchus Marsh and Melton South in the Ballarat Football League on Saturday.

The Devils headed up the highway to face Ballarat and were able to come home with the four points convincingly.

The Devils led by just six points at quarter time, before the margin grew to 29 points at half time.

Another five goals to one in the third quarter made it a match winning lead.

The Devils finished off strongly in the last quarter to come away with an 18.11 (119)-8.7 (55) win.

Billy Myers and Leigh Spiteri kicked four goals each for the Devils. Spiteri and skipper Brett Bewley were named their best.

After a couple of strong performances, the Cobras struggled to match it with the Sunbury Lions.

It was an even first quarter before the Lions started to kick away in the second quarter.

With the lead in their hand, the Lions continued to build on it in the second half to hand the Cobras a 17.12 (114)-8.13 (61) loss.

Jake Owen was the only multiple goal kicker for the Cobras, booting four goals.

Owen was named their best alongside playing coach Dennis Armfield.

Having shown some positive signs in recent weeks, the Panthers were no match for the Kangaroos.

The Kangaroos had plenty of scoring opportunities throughout the game and kept the Panthers goal less until the final quarter.

It ended up a 26.25 (181)-1.1 (7) win to the Kangaroos.

Darby Schilder and Lachlan Pritchard were named the Panthers best.

Melton had the bye.
