NORTH Ballarat dodged a bullet to stave off Sandringham by 13 points in the Victorian Football League at Sandringham on Saturday.

The Roosters were never headed in winning 15.14 (104) to 12.19 (91), but there was nothing clear cut about it.

Sandringham stretched North Ballarat to the limit - drawing level eight minutes into the third quarter as it repeatedly surged.

However, each time the St Kilda-aligned Zebras loomed dangerously, North Ballarat had the answers.

The third quarter provided the best example of this with four goals in six minutes.
