Melton is focused on claiming a top two spot in the Riddell District Football League women’s competition.
Outside of an undefeated Macedon side, there isn’t much between the rest of the sides.
Bloods coach Ryan White said there aren’t any easy games.
“It’s starting to come really close,” he said. “There’s been a few disappointing weeks for us.
“Losing to Romsey and then we were disappointed to drop the game on the weekend.
“Any team on their day can beat any team.
“We want to continue to build.”
After starting the season strongly, the Bloods faced Macedon twice in a short period of time which tested them.
They had a win against Lancefield in that period as well which showed what they were capable of doing.
White, who is in his first season as coach, said he was pleased with how things were progressing.
“The numbers at training have been great,” he said. “We had 26 last Thursday and it’s been more than a month since we’ve had less than 20.
“I wasn’t expecting these types of numbers. Early in the pre-season we had eight to 10 players.
“The culture is progressing.”
White said they were focused on improving their skills to be more consistent from week to week as part of the next step of their progress.
On Saturday, the Bloods faced Lancefield.
White said before the match that they were keen to get back on the winners list.
It wasn’t to be the case with Lancefield winning, 8.8 (56)-4.0 (24).
Vivian Lam, Rebecca Dantonio and Danielle Roczniak were named the Bloods best in the loss.
The Bloods now sit a game behind the second placed Tigers.
White said with the closeness of the competition, they definitely wanted to finish in the top two.
“It’s really important to have a second chance come finals,” he said.
