It was a tight tussle in the first quarter with the Lions leading by 9 points going into the second term. In the second term Mulwala could not capitalise on their multiple forward entries, kicking just two goals.
It was not until the second half that the Lions hit form linking up well from the backline and midfield to provide plenty of opportunity for their forwards.
Gorman was again dangerous in front of goal, kicking three and assisting in others. Robinson, Rouel and Meade all chimed in with two majors for themselves.
Griffiths, Gash, Tyson, Seymour and Hemphill were again among the best as the Lions march on with better form as they enter the business end of the season.
The Lions now sit fourth on the Murray Football League ladder with nine wins but need to win the majority of their remaining four games to stay in touch with qualifying for the finals.
Next week the Lions travel away to play third-placed Moama this Saturday and then play teams below them on the ladder, Tongala, Nathalia and Cobram, in the remaining three rounds.
