Former Beaconsfield and Noble Park playmaker Nathan Tiberi was in brilliant touch with four goals while former Frankston Dolphin Shane McDonald chipped in with two majors.
Seaford cracked the 200-point barrier, downing Mornington by 111 points with Pat Cadd kicking nine goals and Michael Kraska seven.
