Seymour 4.7.31 def by Bears 6.8.44


The Lions took to the field in windy conditions with honours shared in the first half.

The Bears were able to kick away in the third term with the wind, setting up a blockbuster final quarter.

While the Lions were able to put a goal on the board early in the last, play was suspended for a Bears injury, taking away Seymour’s chance to pin back the lead with the strong breeze.

Nick Dundon had another strong outing, showing his class around the ground, while Max McLean showed trademark determination around the contest.

Nic Davey provided plenty of run with Joel Durham working tirelessly in the ruck all day.

Sam Fuhrmeister held the backline together as it withstood repeat entries.

Seymour 10.9.69 def Bears 7.11.53


The Lions prepared well throughout the week for an important clash with the Bears.

A win would be enough to see the Lions enter the top six with a positive win-loss record for the first time in 2025.

The Lions started strongly in the first term with Thomas Wardley lively early, snagging two goals in the quarter.

A very even second period saw the game in the balance before the Lions kicked away in the third to put a big enough buffer on the Bears, withstanding a final quarter surge.

Ben Cooney was a brick wall in defence, supported by Lachlan Giles and Lachlan Beattie.

The two Essendon VFL boys in Jack Peris and Nic Quigg were relentless in their attack on the ball all day with great performances around the ground.


Best: B Cooney, N Quigg, J Peris, L Giles, L Beattie

From there it was all smooth sailing across a strong four quarter performance. Curtis Powell dominated through the middle of the ground, picking up plenty of the footy and kicking some classy goals. Jack Radford backed up a bag of nine last week with another bag of nine. Cooper Lubeck put together a strong performance in his second game back with Max McLean putting his best foot forward. Jack Davey played a strong game after celebrating his 21 st birthday during the week while Joel Durham made his presence felt around the ground.

The first quarter was an even contest between both sides with Dylan Scopel standing out for his run and drive through the middle of the ground. In the second term, the Lions were able to obtain some breathing space in a five goal to one quarter. While Benalla had a chance to get back in the game, inaccurate kicking in front of goal was capitalised upon by the Lions who played a great final quarter in wet conditions. Jack Murphy and Nathan Beattie were ball magnets again, with Lachlan Beattie putting in a fantastic performance after missing last week through injury. Nathan Fowler provided a target up forward all day but yet again Rory Kennedy showed why he is a star of the future, booting three goals in another impactful game from the 16 year old. Best: J Murphy, D Scopel, N Beattie, N Fowler, L Beattie Goals: R Kennedy 3, N Fowler 2, L Lubeck 2, J Murphy 2, L Cavigan 1, D Giles 1, S House 1, W Le Deux 1, D Scopel 1
