Josh, Nick and Ivka dive into the Knights' 2-1 win over Victory in a relegation six-pointer. Is this the start of an unlikely revival? Plus, Ivka delivers a first-hand account of last week's SGM, and we discuss the approach of the new board to dissenting voices. 

Preston were humbled inside 20 minutes at the hands of Oakleigh, in a behind-closed-doors affair at Jack Edwards Reserve. Was this Joe Guest's masterpiece? And what went wrong for the Lions? 

Elsewhere, everything that could go wrong, did go wrong for Green Gully in a surprise 3-2 defeat to Altona Magic, while both Dandenong sides rose to the challenge with draws away at Avondale and Heidelberg. 

And in VPL1, there's a return of a Bulleen favourite to the Veneto Club, and a big twist in the battle for automatic promotion.
