The Women’s Super League big guns kept firing with Devonport and South Hobart both recording 5-0 wins to maintain 100 per cent starts.
With fellow pacesetters Launceston United on a bye, the league favourites took maximum advantage.
Strikers extended their record to 39 goals scored and two conceded in just four games with another handful against Glenorchy.
Reigning golden boot winner Whitney Knight kicked off proceedings after half an hour before the scoring was completed by three players coming off cup hat-tricks last weekend.
A second-half double for off-season arrival Asuka Doi and single for Lucy Foote took both players to six goals for the season before Mia Smith wrapped things up late on to keep Strikers top on goal difference.
Another former Valley Road favourite was pivotal as South Hobart also moved to nine points after three games.
Jaz White, golden boot winner in 2023, rattled up her third consecutive hat-trick to move into double figures after just four matches of the season.
Elke Peterson had given the hosts a 14th-minute lead before White continued to cement her successful move to D’Arcy Street.
However, the prolific striker declined the chance of a fourth when South were awarded a stoppage-time penalty, allowing Sophie Westwood to mark her 100th appearance with a goal from the spot.
Kingborough ensured all three WSL games finished with the same scoreline as they recorded their first points of the season with a 5-0 mauling of Riverside.
Goals from Tilly Wills, Cara Lashmar and Soyoung Lee had the hosts in control after an hour at Lightwood Park before two more in injury time from Minhee Kim and a Meg Connolly own goal.
In NPL Tasmania, champions Glenorchy avenged their extra-time Lakoseljac Cup loss to Devonport a week earlier with a 2-0 win at Valley Road.
The third-versus-fourth clash witnessed the rarity of back-to-back league losses without scoring for Tom Ballantyne’s men as two first-half goals decided the result.
Bary Karia’s 16th minute shot from outside the box was deemed to have crossed the line after hitting the underside of the crossbar.
And Brian Murphy’s team doubled their lead just four minutes later when captain Cammron Morris was fouled in the box and converted from the spot.
A familiar face returned to haunt Riverside Olympic as they went down 3-0 at Kingborough.
Chilean Emanuel Ponce, who swapped clubs earlier this year, set up two goals for Noah Mies and then won a 64th-minute penalty.
Mies turned down the chance of back-to-back hat-tricks by handing the ball to Ponce who duly converted his first Lions goal.
Olympic had been reduced to 10 men when Fahim Moradi collected two yellow cards in the space of four minutes.
Launceston United recorded just a second win in their third NPL Tasmania season and, like their first, it came against Clarence.
Having beaten Zebras 3-1 in round 18 last season, Lino Sciulli’s side settled for 2-1 at Wentworth Park.
David Owusu scored for the third week running when he fired home from the edge of the box after 20 minutes.
Aidan Cann equalised on 40 minutes but a Harkirat Singh own goal in first-half stoppage time was enough to see United climb above Devonport on the ladder.
Sunday’s clash of the top two saw both remain unbeaten as South Hobart and Launceston City drew 2-2.
South went ahead through a Will Humphrey own goal but City took just three minutes to draw level when Angus Taylor continued his record of scoring in every game this season.
Kobe Kemp restored the lead soon after the restart but Humphrey equalised 12 minutes from time.
