Beaconsfield got off to a great start with Walsh laying a good tackle and converted the resultant free kick for the first goal.
Cameron, in the ruck, tapped the ball to Lowe who handballed to a running McKenna who kicked the ball long to a lead from Vandenberghe at fullforward.
He marked and kicked truly for Beaconsfield’s second goal.
Heavy conditions and more intensity by Murrumbeena made further scoring difficult.
At quarter time Beaconsfield led by eight points.
Cameron put his stamp on the game around the ground and when he passed to Mitchell, 30 meters out, Beaconsfield had its first goal for the second term.
The remainder was played between halfforward and halfback, with neither side able to break through.

At halftime Beaconsfield led by 26 points.
