With small forward Josh Evans playing a blinder, the visitors charged clear in the second quarter to snatch top position on the ladder after four rounds.
Evans kicked six goals, Tim Austin continued his good form around the ground, Michael O'Riordan was a constant threat in attack and Riley Kerr held his own running with Azzi medallist Steve Jolliffe.
"The second quarter was our best quarter of the season by a mile," coach Al Austin said.
"We cut up through the middle and linked up really well.
"A lot of the kids are getting to a mature age and gaining some belief."
The win ended a run of 13-straight losses to Howlong.
Daniel Sharp was Howlong's best player.
