South struck by Thunder | Ice-cold Asahi sinks Hume | Dinamo break 3-decade drought

Nick, Josh and Ivka are back on deck to discuss South Melbourne's 3rd defeat on the trot, as Dandenong Thunder climb to an astonishing 2nd in the table.

Injuries derail Preston in the searing heat against Avondale, Asahi Yokokawa nets a magnificent hat trick in Heidelberg's 5-1 humbling of Hume, and Green Gully finally get their first win of the season - an emphatic 3-0 drubbing of the Knights. 

Plus, there's a comeback for the ages in VPL1, and a VPL2 star who throws the ball so far, he has academics waxing lyrical.
