ELIMINATION FINAL - Beer Auto Group Seymour A GRADE

Seymour 34 v Echuca 41

The A Grade girls fought valiantly in their Elimination Final against Echuca but sadly their season has come to an end.

The Bombers came out of the blocks firing, with the Lions facing a nine goal deficit at half time and looking all but out of the game.

However, the girls fought back fantastically in the third quarter, reducing Echuca’s lead to just three goals at the final break.

In the end the Bombers were able to hold the Lions at bay and finish the day victorious.

Eleisha Saunders put in a best on court performance for the Lions, working tirelessly through the midcourt, providing pressure and run in both directions.

Ruby Martin showed her versatility, switching to the attacking end in the back half of the game, playing a crucial role in the Lions third quarter come back.

Sarah Szczykulski rounded out the best in a typically determined performance in defence.

The girls have done our club proud yet again, consistently featuring at the business end of the year. Well done on a great season.


Caffeine Bistro Award: Eleisha Saunders

Janelle Puppa Real Estate UNDER 18s Seymour 6.8.44 def by Kyabram 8.8.56 Best: B McCarthy, Z Brown, H Thomson, D Davis, L Sainsbury Goals: R Kennedy 3, J Mansfield 2, H Thomson 1 O'Keefe's IGA Seymour Reserves Seymour 10.9.69 def by Kyabram 13.4.82 The undermanned Lions knew they were up for a tough test against the top of the table Bombers. Kyabram kicked five goals in the first quarter with Seymour struggling to move the ball forward. After the first break it was a different story with the Lions winning the final three quarters on the scoreboard and taking it right up to a high quality opposition. Unfortunately, the slow start left the Lions with too much to do, going down by 13 points. Will Le Deux was by far the best player on the ground, dominating around stoppages, finding space and kicking four goals from the middle. Cam Osmond won plenty of footy further up the ground while Joel Durham battled hard all day in the ruck without any respite. Sam Fuhrmeister took on a tough job down back and held his own, with Ollie Munro providing a target in the forward half of the ground. A big thank you to the Under 18s boys who stood up and filled in. Hugh Murphy kicked a great goal and Lachlan Donnelly completed a run down tackle for the ages. A great effort from the Lions who will be strengthened by some returning players after the bye. Best: W Le Deux, C Osmond, J Durham, S Fuhrmeister, O Munro Goals: W Le Deux 4, O Munro 2, J Mann 1, M Itter 1, H Murphy 1, J Badger 1 Seymour Club Seniors Seymour 7.8.50 def by Kyabram 20.16.136 It was always going to be a tough ask for the Lions against an undefeated Ky and so it proved to be. Seymour was right in the game early, gaining an early lead before going into the first break just 3 points down. From there it was all one was traffic with the Lions going down by 86 points. In some good news, Nic Quigg made a successful return, kicking a couple of goals to go with plenty of disposals. Lachlan Beattie was tenacious in the back half and even managed to kick his first goal for the Lions late in the day. His attack on the footy and tenacity was matched by Darcy Giles and Lachy Giles who played an important role through the middle of the ground. The Lions will be looking to bounce back against the Swans after a week off. Best: N Quigg, L Beattie, J Murphy, D Giles, L Giles Goals: N Quigg 2, N Beattie 1, R Schraven 1, C Lubeck 1, L Beattie 1, D Giles 1
