Kerang FNC notes

Preliminary final weekend, 2025

 

The countdown to the CMFNL grand final is now in single digits, and Kerang has three of our football and netball sides still in contention for premiership glory.

It was great to see so many supporters at Barham and Tooleybuc last weekend for the league’s semi-final weekend. A large crowd of Blues fans is expected to converge on Lalbert this Saturday to support our Under 15 footballers, A Reserve netballers and 17 and Under netballers as they look to book a spot in the grand final.

Last weekend’s action began at Barham, with our Under 15 footballers looking to progress to the grand final. Unfortunately the side was no match for Swan Hill in the first half, with the Blues going down by 51 points – meaning an encounter with the Mallee Eagles in the preliminary final awaits. Kai Roberts, Charlie Greenwood (Gordy Family award), Oscar Greenwood (Kerang Custom Joinery), Madden Walker (Murray Mallee Woodfired Pizza), Beau Roberts (Zorba’s Pizza) and Campbell McAlpin (Gitsham Family award) were recognised for their efforts.

Three of our netball teams took to the courts at Tooleybuc during last Sunday’s first semi-finals, with two of these sides progressing to the preliminary final.

Our 17 and Under’s premiership defence remains on track following a 21-goal win against Koondrook/Barham, set up by great teamwork across the court. Chloe Meehan (Rulcify’s award) dominated through the midcourt with her drives, precision and drawing away players, while Jenna Gray (The Fiit Space Kerang award) and Olivia Kelly (Zorba’s Pizza award) stood tall in defence, shutting down the River Raiders’ opportunities and turning the ball over time and again. The result sets up a preliminary final clash with the Cohuna Kangas, with Woorinen awaiting the victor for the chance to secure the premiership.

Our A Reserve team also ensured their season extended for at least another week following a two-goal win against Woorinen. The Blues played catch-up during the opening quarter, but regained control of the match in the second term. Our two shooters came up against strong defenders but they didn’t let that affect their game. The mid court players had a tough time in the heat but never gave up, consistently going after every ball, whilst our defence was unbelievable so steady from the start. Jamison Wise (Rulcify’s), Emma Chamberlain (Zorba’s Pizza) and Lily Velleley (The Fiit Space Kerang) received awards for their efforts. The win means the side plays the Mallee Eagles in the preliminary final, with the Cohuna Kangas to play the victor in the grand final.

Unfortunately, our A Grade’s premiership campaign ended following a seven-goal loss to Tooleybuc/Manangatang, with the team battling through intense heat. Despite the result, their determination, teamwork and grit never wavered. Every single player fought to the final whistle, and they should be incredibly proud of all they’ve achieved this season. Maddy Black was best on court for the Blues.

Coming events

Don’t forget that our Presentation Night is occurring on Thursday, 25 September at the Kerang Memorial Hall, with tickets still available for the Redfin Classic Weekend, occurring in October.
