NPL VICTORIA R11 | Fornaroli HAT-TRICK | Hume topple Heidelberg | Razzle dazzle Dinamo

NPL VIC R15 | South's backflip | Thunder show some fight | GV Suns' Matthew Lelliott

We were ready to drop 40 minutes on Sinisa's sacking - and then South Melbourne reinstated him the morning after we recorded. So please enjoy the remainder of this week's NPL Victoria Podcast! Rumours of Dandenong Thunder's inevitable demise may have been exaggerated, after a spirited showing in a 4-2 loss away to Heidelberg. But do the Thunder have only 3 weeks left to save their season? Elsewhere, Bruno nets another hat trick, Melbourne City's international gamble backfires, we examine the Dinamo v Preston Zapruder film and GV Suns midfielder Matthew Lelliott joins us for a VPL2 deep dive.

Josh & Ivka are this week joined in the Content Hype studio by a special guest - Dandenong City striker Zander Guy.

Zander then sticks around to help us break down the weekend’s action, including Preston’s slender victory over an undermanned Hajduk side, Hume City’s thrilling win over George Cross, and Melbourne City’s 7-goal shellacking of Bentleigh Greens.  Plus, Avondale’s remarkable home form continues, Oakleigh leave it late against Thunder, and there’s more debate over South Melbourne’s OFC commitments distorting the league table.  Please note: this podcast was recorded on Tuesday night, before official confirmation of Adam Piddick’s departure from Dandenong Thunder, and Goran Lozanovski’s 17-week suspension.  The NPL Victoria Podcast is brought to you in 2026 by Melville Bodyworks, located at 106 Melville Rd Brunswick West.

NPL VICTORIA R11 | Fornaroli HAT-TRICK | Hume topple Heidelberg | Razzle dazzle Dinamo

Josh, Nick & Ivka dive into Hume City's incredible win over a disappointing Heidelberg. Is this performance enough to dispel any lingering doubts? Is the early kick-off time their secret weapon? And why are the Bergers encountering so many false dawns? St Albans tore Bentleigh apart for 70 minutes - and it almost came crashing down in a chaotic last 20. Have Dinamo finally found a consistent formula? And will Lloyd Isgrove manage to reclaim his spot in the starting XI? And it was a tough afternoon for Georgies away at Avenger Park, as some 'coach killers' at the back and a brilliant Bruno hat-trick saw the newly promoted side cop a hiding. Are George Cross beginning to let their bright start slip? The NPL Victoria Podcast is brought to you in 2026 by Melville Bodyworks, located at 106 Melville Rd Brunswick West.
