GDG: Josh Porter carried on from last week and had a dominant display in middle and kicking 4 goals

CWM: Cooper Holdsworth-Rose used his big frame in the middle to set the tone for the day, got plenty of the footy and helped drive us forward.

Canteen Award: Ryder Primrose patrolled the half back and marked strongly

Thursday Night Dinner: Hugh Murphy used his athletic ability to jump all over the opposition ruckman for the day, giving the mids first service. If possible, leave assumption players off the goal kicking  or don’t mention goal kickers so the school doesn’t get upset

O'Keefe's IGA Seymour Reserves 

Seymour 6.12.48 - Benalla 5.3.33


The Reserves put together a gritty win with a undermanned team, taking over the game in the final quarter.

The Lions started strongly with Jardine Nai kicking a great goal early in the game.

It proved a tight arm wrestle from there with Will Laird leading the charge across the ground with plenty of run and carry and strong defensive pressure.

The defenders repelled plenty of defensive 50 entries, with Jack Davey picking up plenty of intercept possessions and Scott McMaster strongly rebounding the footy. 

Both Ishaq Ali and Harry Palmer provided a strong presence across the ground the keep the ball moving.

At the start of the last term the Lions peppered the goals with a run of behinds before kicking a couple of goals to grab an important win.


Best: W Laird, S McMaster, J Davey, I Ali, H Palmer

Goals: J Morgan 2, D Saunders 1, D Short 1, J Nai 1, R Graham 1




Seymour Club Seniors

Seymour 21.15.140 - Benalla 13.7.85

The Seniors have broken through for their first win after the season after a big second half against Benalla to record a nine goal win.

The Lions got off to a great start in the first quarter with a snap from big man Todd Lawrence getting the boys up and about. 

Benalla bounced back in the second quarter to make it anyone’s game at half time.

A seven goal third term and eight goal final quarter saw the Lions take the game away and record a thumping victory.

Jack Murphy and Nathan Beattie continued to dominate in the midfield with Nugget finding plenty of ball around the ground and Murph picking up disposals at will.

Tayte Lewis showed trademark determination in the centre, always hard at the footy and tackling with great skill and effort.

While the defensive end held up incredibly well it was the forwards who put together some big days.

Nathan Fowler presented strongly throughout the day with some great contested marking in the forward 50 and four goals.

The star of the show was undoubtedly Riley Mason who dominated the game, with Benalla unable to match his skill in one on one situations or when the ball hit the ground. Often left one on one as the deepest forward, Riley took full advantage, booting eight goals in an awesome display.

The boys enjoyed a great feed at the Seymour Club following the game and are stoked to be lacing up the boots with Dave Mundy this weekend.


Best: R Mason, J Murphy, N Fowler, N Beattie, T Lewis

Goals: R Mason 8, N Fowler 4, J Murphy 2, T Lawrence 2, L Hockley 1, R Schraven 1, C Thomson 1, S Thomson 1, C Lubeck 1



Seymour FNC News

By Mitch Itter September 29, 2025
Big news has emerged from Seymour following the conclusion of the 2025 Goulburn Valley League season. Re-signings, new signings, and key appointments have Lions fans excited for 2026. History will be made at The Den, with Senior Co-Coach Ben Davey re-appointed for another season. Davey will become Seymour’s longest-serving senior coach, marking seven years in the role. Club legend Bernie Habermann previously held the record with six seasons. Jack Murphy will also continue as Senior Co-Coach after a sensational first year on the field, taking on additional responsibilities with great success. Seymour President Peter Elliott said the club was thrilled to have continuity in the football department heading into 2026. “We’re incredibly fortunate to have Ben and Murph re-commit for another year, and it’s set to be a huge season at The Den,” he said. “Ben is a legend of our club – a dual senior premiership player, Reserves premiership coach, and now our longest-serving senior coach in history, while Murph is fresh off another Best and Fairest. “Both Ben and Murph are high-quality, local people who will drive our club to new heights next year. “While this season didn’t go as planned, our list is hungry and can’t wait to get back on the track.” A couple of star recruits will bolster the Seymour midfield when pre-season kicks off. “With most of our senior list re-committing early for 2026, we’ve been able to add some exciting new players,” Mr Elliott said. “Xavier Dimasi returns to where he made his senior debut, following time in the VFL at Box Hill and a dominant period at Whittlesea. “He’ll be joined by Jaron Murphy, his former partner in crime from Whittlesea and a great player in his own right, who will add plenty of run and carry to our senior side.  “On behalf of the Seymour community, I’d like to welcome Xavier, Jaron and their families to The Den and we’re all looking forward to seeing them strut their stuff.”
