THIS Saturday will see the final round of the 2025 home and away season for the Warrnambool District League.
With 16 wins under their belts to date, Merrivale looks set to finish on top of the senior football ladder, while the battle continues for the prized fifth spot – with Old Collegians a game clear of the sixth-placed Timboon.
The pair will meet tomorrow (Saturday) and the Demons will need a percentage-boosting win if they are to slip into the five and replace the Warriors.
Allansford, Russells Creek and Nirranda (second to fourth) look set to retain their positions in the five.
In the reserves competition, Russells Creek remains unbeaten on top of the ladder, with Allansford second, a game and a half clear of the third-placed Nirranda.
Timboon and Merrivale make up the top five, with Old Collegians sitting just percentage outside in sixth.
Russells Creek, South Rovers, Kolora Noorat, Allansford and Timboon currently make up the top five in the under 18 competition.
In the netball, Nirranda looks set to make a clean sweep of the senior grades for the home and away rounds, with the club currently sitting on top of the A grade, A reserve and B grade ladders.
Old Collegians sits two games clear of its nearest rivals, Allansford, in the 17 and under competition while Allansford currently tops the 15 and under table and the Timboon Demons and Russells Creek are tied on points in the 13 and unders.
The final home and away games tomorrow (Saturday) will see Panmure host Nirranda, Timboon will be at home to Old Collegians, Allansford will host Russells Creek, Dennington will travel to Noorat and South Rovers and Merrivale will meet at Walter Oval.
