The following article was posted on the Western Border League Website www.wbfl.vcfl.com.au
The article only details the Grand Final of the pre-season cup, and I would like to know what the other games where like.
South Gambier win Elastoplast Cup
South Gambier has followed on from their premiership success in 2005 to win the Western Border Football League's inaugural Elastoplast Cup Preseason Competition, defeating Heywood in the Grand Final.
In the netball, Hamilton won both the Senior and Junior grade from Hamilton Imperial and North Gambier respectively, capping of a successful day for the Magpie ladies.
An estimated crowd of 1500 people saw fast paced, non-stop football and netball action from 9:00am to 5:40pm.
In the football, ten preliminary matches of 35 minutes in duration saw each team play two matches, which resulted in South Gambier finishing on top of Pool A with East Gambier second, whilst Pool B saw Heywood finish on top from Portland.
South Gambier was too strong for Portland in the first Semi-Final, whilst Heywood prevailed in the second Semi Final against East Gambier, leading to the South Gambier v Heywood Grand Final.
South Gambier proved that they will again be the team to beat, overpowering Heywood in the decider to win 6.2 (38) to 3.1 (19). Despite the loss, Heywood showed enough to indicate that they will be big improvers in 2006, with a number of new recruits combining well with the established Lion players.
For the Preseason Premiers John Richter kicked 3 goals in the Grand Final, Heath Sims kicked 2 and Michael Ryan kicked 1. Best players for South in the Grand Final were Cameron Milich, Jared Collie, Paul Mullen, Heath Sims and John Richter. For Heywood, Mark Jones with 2 and John Bell with 1 were the goalkickers. Heywood's best players in the Grand Final were Fred Saunders, Andrew Ryan, Oliver Reesom, Chris Lynd and Damien McInnes.
The 5SE award for the best South Australian player for the competition was won by South's Cameron Milich, while Heywood's Clint Foster was voted as the best Victorian player to compete in the carnival.
