Seymour 14.6.90 def Benalla 7.14.56


The Lions were out to make amends after a poor showing at Mooroopna last weekend and managed to get themselves back on the winner’s list against Benalla.

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
