A relentless Donnybrook side piled on 34 goals on their way to the 10th-biggest winning margin in South West Football League history against Eaton at VC Mitchell Park on Saturday.

Donnybrook players all filled their boots in the colossal win, Kristian Cary led the way with eight, Michael Battaglia and skipper Zac Trigwell both put through five while player coach Cody Leggett kicked four.
After Eaton kicked their solitary goal the Dons put 32 consecutive majors over the goal umpires hat in the most dominant display for the season to date.
There isn’t much light at the end of the tunnel for the Boomers with Pickett set to return but without fellow key players the side will continue to struggle.
