The Lions came out of the blocks strongly putting six majors on the board in the first term.

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 21st birthday during the week while Joel Durham made his presence felt around the ground.

Seymour Club Seniors

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


Seymour FNC News

By Mitch Itter June 22, 2026
The Seymour Football Netball Club (SFNC) will celebrate a significant milestone this weekend, with Senior Co-Coach and Captain Jack Murphy set to play his 150th senior game for the Lions. Since making his senior debut in 2015, Murphy has established himself as one of the premier players in the Goulburn Valley League. Over the past decade, Murphy has built an outstanding football resume. A dual Senior Best & Fairest winner, GVL Interleague representative, League MVP and former Coburg VFL player, he has consistently performed at an elite level while representing the Lions with distinction. While his individual achievements are impressive, Murphy's influence extends far beyond the football field. Renowned for his professionalism, work ethic and commitment to the club, he has played a significant role in driving standards and helping develop the next generation of Lions players. Now serving as Senior Co-Coach, Murphy continues to lead from the front each week and remains one of the competition's most influential midfielders. SFNC President Peter Elliott said Murphy's contribution to the Lions over the past 11 seasons has been remarkable. “Murph has been an outstanding servant of our football club and thoroughly deserves this recognition,” Mr Elliott said. “His achievements on the field are exceptional, but it's the way he goes about it that sets him apart. “He's one of the hardest workers at the club, a fantastic leader and someone who is so passionate about the success of the Seymour Lions. “He's represented our club with distinction throughout his career and continues to set the standard both as a player and coach. “To reach 150 senior games is a fantastic achievement and one that both Murph and everyone associated with the club should be proud of. “We're incredibly fortunate to have had Murph at Seymour for so long and look forward to seeing him continue to make an impact in the years ahead.”
