Cats through to grand final

ALLANSFORD’S senior footballers have booked themselves a spot in the 2025 Warrnambool District League grand final after a narrow win over Merrivale last weekend.

The Cats celebrated a seven-point victory at Davidson Oval last Saturday, 9.7.61 to 7.12.54 and will face the winner of tomorrow’s preliminary final decider between Merrivale and Nirranda.

Allansford’s reserves will take on the Timboon Demons in the preliminary final, with both sides eager to play Russells Creek for premiership honours next week.

In the A grade netball, Merrivale booked its place on grand final day with a 49-37 win over Nirranda last Saturday, while Dennington’s finals campaign came to an end on Sunday at the hands of Allansford.

Nirranda and Allansford will contest tomorrow’s preliminary final in the hope of taking on Merrivale in the grand final next week.
