Has there ever been a better round of goals in this competition?

From Diego Cuba's physics-defying free kick to a pair of Preston pile-drivers, we were spoilt for choice for goal of the week. Add in two six-goal thrillers and a pair of backflip celebrations, and NPL Victoria fans were eating good this past weekend.

We start at George Andrews, where Thunder found themselves 3-0 up against Oakleigh inside half an hour, before the Cannons roared back to life in the second half. Then, over at Frank Holohan, a Ren Nagamatsu-inspired South Melbourne ran riot before King Kenny led a late fightback.

Dinamo's decisive derby win leaves the Knights on the brink, Preston bounce back in emphatic fashion, and Nick Hegarty's Hume lose their third on the trot.

Plus in VPL1, we dig into Northcote's decision to sack their coaching duo, and Kingston's incredible 6-1 demolition of Manningham.

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.

St Albans looked set for a fourth straight Desmond, before Mickel Platt stepped up in stoppage time. Are Dinamo set for another great escape? And why do Oakleigh always seem to get the June blues?

Victory's goalkeeping woes continue as Port Melbourne takes the chocolates in Bundoora. But can the Sharks keep hold of their star man?

Kalilou Kamara saves a point for Avondale against Preston, there's drama on the touchline at Frank Holohan, and the unthinkable now seems inevitable for the Melbourne Knights.

Plus, the Luke Lofts show continues in VPL1 as Georgies edge ahead of Bentleigh in the race for promotion. Will George Katsakis light up the bat signal?
