Riddell delivered a fine four-quarter effort to earn a massive win over a disappointing Woodend-Hesket in the Riddell District Football League on Saturday.
With the Hawks coming off their best win of the season in the previous round, it was expected to be a good match-up. Instead, the Bombers controlled from the opening bounce to win 19.13 (127)-7.5 (47).
Returning to his normal spot in the forward line, James Nolan kicked three goals for the Bombers, while reigning Bowen medallist Paul Sahlberg showed his form of last year with a best-on-ground performance.
Ethan Cove was named best in what was a disappointing day all round for the Hawks, with Matt Bourke and Brandon Nicholls suffering serious injuries.
Rupertswood and Romsey proved to be the game of the round, in a low-scoring hard-fought battle. There was nothing in the game all through the match, with the Sharks finally sneaking across the line 6.10 (46)-6.6 (42).
