This game was swapped to a home game due to the Rowville ground not being available.

In the earlier game, the youthful Valley Reserves but in a dominant display winning 6-3 against a more experienced Rowville line up. Four goals inside the first 25 minutes set up what would be an entertaining game from both sides with the Valley going into half time 3-2 up with goals from Jeremy Lau, Daniel Stefanakis and Lucas Palazzolo.

In the second half it was one way traffic. The Valley kept the heat on banging in another 3 goals with Harry Cavus, Andrew Daglaras and Christian Mantineo all on the scoresheet. With six individual scorers for the home team, there is plenty to be excited about with this young side.

It is the first time since Round 11 2015 that both the senior and reserves team have both come away with the 3 points and a great way to start the campaign with both sides presently undefeated.

In the reserves, after going into the break 1-0 thanks to a penalty scored by Harry Cavus, Valley found themselves 2-1 down early in the second half before a late Johnny Pyrgolios free kick rescued a point for the young Valley side as the game finished 2-2.
