Seven first quarter goals by Harvey Brunswick Leschenault saw them account for Dunsborough, at the Dunsborough Playing Fields on Saturday evening, in round two of the Dale Alcock Homes South West, South West Football League season.
The seven goal onslaught by the Lions in the first quarter set up the victory as the visitors led by thirty points at quarter time. The final margin would be thirty two points, as the home side rallied, and if not for some inacurate kicking in front of goals in the last term, the margin could well have been much less.
Dunsborough though would be on the back foot from almost the outset, with the Lions first term seeing multiple players convert from all angles, seemingly unable to miss, setting up their first win of the season.
Jack Fletcher was a standout, not only in the ruck, but around the ground, also chiming in with two goals, to be one of the best players on the ground, while James Finucane and Beau Sellick got plenty of the footy. Ryder Phillips played well for the Sharks and was a handful for the Lions defenders, kicking four goals.
After the Easter break, Dunsborough will host Carey Park, while the Lions will take on the Boomers at Glen Huon Reserve.
