Top-of-the-table South Warrnambool will hold its dominance in the lead in to finals, with the side set to face bottom-team Portland this weekend.

Rounding out the top five is North Warrnambool in second, followed by Warrnambool, Terang Mortlake and Koroit who should all notch up wins tomorrow.

The Eagles will be coming off one of the biggest winning margins of the round last weekend, defeating the sixth-placed Cobden Bombers by 78 points at Bushfield.

The home side held a commanding 50 point lead going into the main break before kicking a further eight goals in the second half to secure victory, 17.14.116 to 5.8.38.

Jackson Grundy, Will Brennan, Bailey Jenkinson, Alexander Jennings, Jarryd Lewis and Tom Keast were among the best for the side.

In other round 16 matches, the Roosters held on for an eight-point win over Camperdown, Koroit celebrated victory over Terang Mortlake, Cobden was big winners over Portland and Hamilton accounted for Port Fairy.

Round 18 of Hampden League tomorrow will see Terang Mortlake host Cobden, South Warrnambool at home to Portland, Port Fairy and Koroit will meet at Victoria Park, North Warrnambool will travel to Camperdown and Hamilton and the Blues will meet at Dunkeld.
