Following a couple of large wins, the Lions came out determined to take it up to a strong Bears outfit. From the outset it was a tough tussle between the sides but the Lions were able to get the advantage in the first half before the Bears clawed back the lead in the third quarter. In a closely fought final quarter the Lions held on for a 14 point victory. Jack Radford returned in a best on ground performance to seal the league leading goalkicker award. Nick Dundon worked hard around the ground a kicked a fantastic goal from 50 on the run early in the game. Through the middle of the ground Nic Davey, Joel Badger and Joel Brooks were all influential in the final outcome. A great win before heading into a big September.

Once again, Riley Mason led all comers with five goals up forward, with Darcy Giles and Ben McCarthy lively at his feet. Jack Peris was best on ground, providing plenty of dash around the ground while racking up possessions through the middle alongside Nathan Beattie, James Wooster and Dylan Cook.

Australian Trenching & Excavations UNDER 15s Seymour 15 def by Bears 56 The scoreboard didn’t reflect the effort the girls put into today’s game. We had some great passages of play and worked hard in defence. Charlotte Bradley was accurate in the first half, supported by Matilda Barry, Sienna Lynch and Lily Tippett. Isabel Meller and Eden Webster created many turnovers throughout the game but unfortunately we couldn’t capitalise on the scoreboard. Eva Hay battled all day, contesting and applying pressure over the ball. We have lots of positives to take away from the season with individual improvements across the court. Café 96 Award: Isabel Meller Trawool Shed - Cafe, Cottages & Restaurant UNDER 17s Seymour 27 def by Bears 43 Sophie Butterworth worked the GS bib for a full 4 quarters. Sophie took some great catches and shot beautifully and accurately. Her hard work in the ring to get front position did not go unnoticed. Ella Zotti had a tough gig in the middle of the court. She continuously made hard drives and fed wonderfully into our goalers. Paige Cooper was yet again vital in our defensive end, stopping crucial goals and providing the Lions with plenty of opportunities to score.

Whistle Award: Olivia Pearce Beer Auto Group Seymour A GRADE Seymour 54 drew with Bears 54 It was a strong start to the game with the Lions taking the lead. Lucy Zotti and Rosie O’Sullivan led the way with strong leads through attack and accurate feeds to the goalers. Sarah Szczykulski and Ruby Martin communicated well to shut Bears attacking end down. After a tough second quarter the Lions switched up the team to give a different dynamic. Ally Black, Ellie Fuhrmeister and Ruby Martin controlled the attacking end well while Lucy Zotti and Bridie Cantwell put plenty of pressure on in defense.
