Three rounds remain

WITH three rounds of the 2025 Hampden League home and away season remaining, the race towards finals is on.

In the senior football, North Warrnambool Eagles now sit two games clear of nearest rivals Warrnambool, while in the reserves, South Warrnambool is just a game clear of the second-placed Koroit Saints.

The Saints also top the leaderboard in the under 18s, a game clear of South Warrnambool and Hamilton (both on the same points, with only percentage separating the two).

In the seniors, the third-placed Roosters will be eager to get back on the winners’ list this weekend after having to contend with a draw against the seventh-placed Magpies last weekend.

In front of a home crowd at Leura Oval, the Magpies showed they are one of the fast-improving sides of the league, kicking 9.4.58 to the Roosters’ 8.10.58.

The Magpies got off to a great start, kicking 4.3 in the opening term while containing the visitors to 1.1.

The Roosters fought back for the remainder of the game to share the points.

On the netball courts, Warrnambool currently sits on top of the Open division ladder, a game clear of nearest rivals South Warrnambool, with Koroit third half a game behind.

Cobden and Camperdown make up the top five, with Portland sitting outside just a game away.

Round 16 this weekend will see South Warrnambool host Hamilton, Port Fairy will travel to Terang, Koroit will host North Warrnambool, Warrnambool will play away against the Cobden Bombers and Portland will host Camperdown.
