Ryan Borthwick got the home side off the a flyer and then Ronald Ross added number two in the fifth minute before his striking partner, Kevin Thain, made it 3-0 two minutes later. Ross bagged his second in the 11th minute and Russell Dallas added the fifth in the 15th. Thain got his second and the sixth in the 25th minute. Ross went one better with his seventh in the 40th and was joined on a hat-trick by Thain on the turn to leave it 8-0 going into the second period. Thain made in nine in the 52nd minute, and Ross 10 in the 65th before Ryan Borthwick ended the scoring with eight minutes left to leave the final score at 11-0. In the end, though, Borthwick was the unluckiest player on the field when he was denied a deserved hat-trick because of an error by the officials.
He fired in a shot so hard and fast that the referee didn't even see it as it went in and rebounded back out again off the back stanchion. Elsewhere in the Premier League, defences were tighter in the hard-fought 1-1 draw between Glen Urquhart and Bute, whilst Kyles Athletic had an easy time of it with a 7-0 victory over bottom club Glenorchy. In North Division 1, Beauly won 3-0 at Lochcarron thanks to a double from Sean Stewart and one from Connor Ross, leaving the West Coast side still without a point, though only having played three games so far. Skye won 6-1 at home to Kinlochshiel to stay top, six points clear. Three games were called off in North Division 3 due to team raising difficulties, with Ardnamurchan conceding the points to Boleskine, Strathglass to Lochaber and Kincraig to Lochcarron, whilst leaders Aberdeen University dropped a point in a 2-2 draw with lowly Inverness.
