Tonia Wilcox was thrilled to have won funding for her idea, ‘Barterbool.’
THE people have spoken and Tonia Wilcox’s “Barterbool” has won the Warrnambool City Council’s first Cheers to Ideas funding round.
Cheers to Ideas invites community members to submit simple ideas that will make Warrnambool a more vibrant and enjoyable place.
The public then votes on their favourite idea, with the winner receiving up to $2,000 in council funding to bring it to life.
Barterbool encourages people to take along a home-grown or homemade item to place on the “barter table,” receiving a raffle ticket in return.
Throughout the event, tickets will be drawn, allowing each ticket holder to select an item they love from the table to take home.
The event will also feature music and an MC to keep everyone entertained.
Draws will take place regularly, culminating in a major prize draw (the “BarterBOOM”) at the end.
Ms Wilcox described her event as “enjoyabool, sociabool, sustainabool, accessibool, portabool and reusabool.”
“I think that Barterbool is going to be a vehicle for connection, so people actually getting together,” she said.
“I think the other thing that Barterbool is really good for is to spread the message of sustainability. We don’t need to spend money and buy things constantly to satisfy ourselves and have a good time.”
Ms Wilcox said she had slowly been developing the idea in her mind for some time, with Cheers to Ideas the catalyst to her taking action.
“I’ve been thinking about this for a while. I’ve just had little ideas, and little bits would get added… and then Cheers to Ideas came up and I thought now I’ve got a vehicle for it and now I know where it can go.”
The initial plan is to hold the first Barterbool event in the Warrnambool Community Garden in October, with further details to be confirmed.
And while that will be the first Barterbool event, it won’t be the last.
Continuing the message of sustainability, Ms Wilcox said the council funding would be used to create an event kit to make Barterbool easy to run repeatedly.
“So festivals, events, schools, and markets could take the kit, and they could use the items in the kit to create their own Barterbool event,” she said.
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain congratulated Ms Wilcox on her winning idea.
“Well done Tonia and also well done to everyone else who put their idea forward,” he said.
“It’s exciting to see such passionate people in our community with creative ideas and the drive to make them happen.
“Over 180 votes were cast, so it also shows that in the community, there’s support for innovative placemaking ideas.”
Cr Blain said that applications for Cheers to Ideas round two were now open.
Barterbool wins Ideas funding
“If you’ve got a simple idea to make Warrnambool a more fun, connected and interesting place, then we want to hear from you. We’ve got up to $2,000 in funding to make your idea a reality,” he said.
It’s a sentiment that was echoed by Ms Wilcox.
“If you’ve got an idea don’t sit on it,” she said.
“Council’s economic development team has been incredibly encouraging and supportive. I rang them on a few occasions and asked some questions.
“There’s so many people in this town that have creative ideas that really could be put to use, so go for it.”
To find out more about Cheers to Ideas and to submit an idea for round two, visit www.warrnambool.vic.gov.au/cheersideas.
Round two submissions are open now and will close on Sunday, September 21.

School thanks leaders
WARRNAMBOOL West Primary School last week celebrated their school leaders.
As part of ‘Principals’ Day’ on Friday (a day to acknowledge the dedication, leadership and impact of school principals across Victoria), Warrnambool West Primary School staff and students celebrated principal Karen Holdsworth and assistant principal, Jodie Abbott.
Halls were decorated in art work made for the occasion, along with hand written notes from every student.
To the words of ‘Count of Me’ the principals entered a surprise assembly and watched a video, that had been put together of many students and staff, verbalising important traits about their leaders.
Karen and Jodie were presented with flowers, portraits and trophies and were also treated to a special morning tea.
To the Editor,
Letter to the Editor
Last Tuesday, July 29, the Victorian Parliament had an opportunity to act decisively to strengthen the state’s broken Working with Children Check system.
The Nationals and Liberals introduced the Worker Screening Amendment (Safety of Children) Bill 2025; urgent reforms in the wake of a horrifying childcare abuse scandal that shocked families across Victoria.
A childcare worker (now accused of abusing children as young as five months old) somehow slipped through a system that is supposed to safeguard our most vulnerable.
This has rightly caused outrage among parents and raised the question: how could this have happened under the Allan Labor Government’s watch?
Any person with a heart would agree that those who commit such heinous acts against children should face the full weight of the law.
And any person with a brain would recognise the desperate need for urgent reform to ensure this never happens again.
So why did Premier Allan and the Labor Party vote to block these vital changes?
The Victorian Ombudsman warned the government back in 2022 to act swiftly to fix the Working with Children Check system.
Labor ignored those recommendations.
The bill I supported last week, as the Shadow Minister for Child Protection, would have put those expert-backed reforms into law. Labor voted it down.
Worse still, this isn’t the only warning they’ve ignored.
The Commission for Children and Young People (CCYP) has also delivered a dire warning: the Reportable Conduct Scheme, designed to investigate abuse allegations, is dangerously underfunded and overwhelmed.
Reports requiring investigation surged by 81 per cent in just one year.
Still, the Allan Labor Government did nothing.
Now they’ve called for another “urgent review;” a review of things that have already been reviewed, with recommendations already on the table, ready to implement. This isn’t action. It’s deflection. And it’s not good enough.
Premier Allan says these recent revelations are “every parent’s worst nightmare.”
But her government had the chance to act and chose not to.
Words are not enough. Action is what protects children.
As Shadow Minister for Child Protection, I will not stop demanding a system that puts children first - not politics, not process, and not delay.
Roma Britnell MP
Member for South West Coast Shadow Minister for Child Protection

Wall shines a light on the fallen
EIGHTY years on from the end of WW2, the names of many service men and women buried in the Warrnambool Cemetery now adorn a special ‘Memorial Wall’ inside the local RSL.
The names of the fallen now take pride of place at Warrnambool RSL thanks to the efforts of a group of local members.
The wall not only lists the names of the former service personnel, but also their year of death and exactly where they are buried in the cemetery.
“It’s certainly been quite an interesting journey of discovery,” Ron Sproston said.
“We had three large windows here (at the RSL) that looked into the pokies and although they were covered with curtains I thought that would be an ideal place for a memorial wall to be established.
“Our interactive memorial outside has approximately 8,000 names on it and we are constantly adding to it but here we had an opportunity to also commemorate all those who had served in WW2 and are now buried in Warrnambool.
“It is fitting that now, 80 years on since the surrender, we can officially open this wall and invite the community to take a look.”
Incredibly, it took less than eight weeks to finalise the new wall thanks to the efforts of a small band of volunteers.
“While this may have been my idea originally, I have certainly had a lot of help in bringing this to life,” Ron said.
“My wife Carlyn has also done a power of work, along other members of our group who are in charge of memorabilia; it was a great team effort.”
The official unveiling of the World War 2 Memorial Wall will take place at the
Warrnambool RSL on Sunday, August 24.
“We hope to see a large crowd at our official unveiling; not just local residents but also those representing community groups, service organisations, schools and others,” Ron said.
The day will also mark a celebration of the recent completion of the World War 2 service stories of all personnel from
across the region, now available on the interactive memorial.
Visitors to the RSL will also be able to view the latest changes and additions to the interior wall displays.
The official program will begin at 3pm in the function room.
For more information phone Carlyn on 0458 597 941.
Paul Azzopardi, Colin Davies, Carlyn Sproston, Tonya McMahon, Heather Hockley, Joanne Egan and Ron Sproston each played an integral role in the establishment of the memorial wall.

Season launch this weekend
FRUIT Rescue will launch its third harvest season this weekend, with ambitious goals to double last year’s harvest total.
To celebrate the launch, Fruit Rescue will hold its first-ever winter grafting workshop this Sunday, August 10 at the Warrnambool Community Garden.
Guided by master grafters Neil Barraclough and Carolyn Gemmell, the handson workshop will equip participants with skills to preserve rare fruit varieties, rejuvenate ageing trees and create multi-fruit specimens.
The three hour session includes practical grafting instruction with personalised support, accompanied by take-home materials.
For more information and to secure your spot head to fruitrescue.org.au
“As we continue to grow, so does our impact on both the community and the environment,” Fruit Rescue director, Courtney Mathew said.
“Together, we’re transforming surplus fruit into a shared resource that nourishes us all.”
Britnell calls for more relief
MEMBER for South West Coast
Roma Britnell has labelled the state government’s drought relief package a “disappointing and delayed response.”
In a statement issued last Thursday, Ms Britnell said the government’s relief package leaves struggling south west coast farmers behind.
“The government has failed to deliver immediate assistance, with so-called discounts only now reaching mailboxes, while the emergency services volunteer fund (ESVF) has been pushed into next year,” Ms Britnell said.
And while recent rainfall is welcome, Ms Britnell emphasised that feed for livestock “doesn’t sprout overnight.”
“Farmers are still doing it tough. Just as hard, if not harder, with the cold conditions at the moment,” she said.
“In the midst of all this government promise of relief, CFA volunteers now face a complicated process to claim the promised rebate for the emergency services tax.”
Ms Britnell added that on top of their CFA verification, volunteers must also register on a government portal and provide additional information, consenting to data sharing with various parties.
“How much harder can the government make it?” she asked.
“As farmers are feeding their animals by hand, this out of touch government thinks they have time to fill out complex
online forms and applications.”
Ms Britnell is calling on the government to expand financial assistance immediately.
“The Victorian Farmers Federation has rightly called out this package. Feed is what our farmers need today, not next season. That’s why organisations like Need for Feed are stepping in with hay deliveries from Western Australia.
“If the government genuinely wants to help, they should back these practical efforts.”
She believes the latest “insult” is the complex and bureaucratic process CFA volunteers must endure to access the emergency services tax rebate.
“Our volunteers shouldn’t have to jump through digital hoops and surrender personal data just to receive what they’ve been promised,” Ms Britnell said.
“After two years of crippling dry conditions, the south-west community deserves decisive action, not taskforces and empty announcements.”
She believes this recent drought relief package falls short, and that farmers are still waiting for meaningful support while other regions receive freight rebates and broader consideration, including for hobby farmers.
“Our farmers feed Victoria and they deserve more than platitudes. They deserve respect, real support, and action.”
Fire Night next weekend
GATHER your friends and family, put on some warm layers and head to Flagstaff Hill next weekend for another exciting ‘Fire Night.’
To be held on Saturday, August 16 ‘Fire Night’ will once again provide a wonderful evening for people of all ages.

Relax by a crackling open fire with some local hearty, winter-warming food from Sun Bear BBQ, Jun’s Home Kitche, Bunz Sandwiches, Twisto Potato and Dutch Café.
Visitors will be able to toast their own marshmallows and enjoy classic tunes by Over Time Acoustic Duo while sipping on a luxurious, house-made hot beverage. The super thick hot chocolates will no doubt be popular once again, as will the delicious range of hot chocolates, coffees and a non-alcoholic ‘hot toddy’ to warm your hands and bellies.
The event will run from 5pm-9.30pm with tickets just $5 each.
This will again be an alcohol-free event.
Big winners in latest funding round
PREMIER Speedway, Warrnambool Racing Club, Life Saving Victoria and the Citizens Road Race Committee are among the big winners in the latest round of community grants.
At a special presentation ceremony on Wednesday night, Warrnambool City Council delivered its largest ever round of community grants, with 47 local groups and events sharing in over $300,000 (delivered through the Community Development Fund and the Festivals and Events Fund).
“What I really like about these two funds is how broad the funding criteria is,” Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said.
“They support the simple and essential, and they also give space for creativity, helping people solve problems and bring new ideas to life.
“Where else can a grant support new toys for the toy library, and help the model railway club run its trains using solar power?
“Or help preserve the legacy of the second oldest one-day cycling race in the world while also giving new events the chance to start their own traditions?”
Cr Blain said that looking at the list of this year’s recipients, it represents a snapshot of what Warrnambool has to offer.
“It’s supporting the arts, with theatre, music and multimedia, and support for almost every sport imaginable.
“And of course there are events, big and small, that bring neighbours together, visitors to the city, and create lifetime memories.”

ST PIUS X celebrated student identity, confidence and kindness during its recent term three pastoral care day.
Following last Friday’s theme of ‘This is Me,’ the day encouraged every student to explore and express their own uniqueness while promoting positive body image and self-esteem.
Through carefully planned activities across all year levels, students engaged in discussions and creative tasks that helped them reflect on their strengths, values and individuality.
From decorating self-portraits to making healthy body image posters, students embraced what makes them, and their peers, special.
School celebrates confidence and uniqueness
During the afternoon, the school turned its focus to positive behaviour, with mixed-age groups collaborating to create short videos that model respectful, responsible and safe behaviour.
These student-created videos will now be used as learning tools throughout the year.
The day ended on a high note, with a spirited whole-school performance of ‘This is Me’ – a celebration of diversity, resilience and acceptance.
Staff and students alike contributed to a joyful, reflective day that captured the heart of the school’s values.
“St Pius X continues to champion a culture where every child is seen, heard and valued just as they are,” principal Nick Murrell said.

Tech school designs unveiled
INNOVATIVE designs for the new South West Tech School have been unveiled, showcasing a futurefocused facility that will benefit more than 7,500 students from 26 secondary schools across the region.
Set to be completed in Warrnambool in September 2026 with South West TAFE as tertiary partner, South West Tech School will provide free high-tech, hands-on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs to local secondary school students.
It will bring schools, industries and TAFE together as students take on real-world problems, design their own solutions and get the skills they need for emerging jobs and industries.
Tech school director Rohan Keert said South West Tech School had been designed to facilitate collaboration and teamwork.
“Students told us that they prefer open, collaborative, and flexible spaces, and also highlighted the need for quiet, enclosed, or naturally lit environments, and that’s what these designs deliver,” Mr Keert said.
Programs will focus on key STEM related study and career options, such as robotics and agriculture technologies, green energy technologies, advanced construction and manufacturing, and art, media and content creation.
The design of the new facility prioritises accessibility, spaciousness and wellequipped facilities.
“We are on track to deliver one of the most innovative education projects in the world to students in the south west,” Mr Keert said.
He added that South West Tech School would elicit an immediate positive reaction from students, who will be met by robotic dogs and led to their learning spaces.
The Tech School was originally to be known as Warrnambool Tech School but
its name has been changed to South West Tech School.
The Minister for Education approved the name change in late June.
SWTAFE led a comprehensive consultation process with schools, industry partners and staff.
The collaborative approach demonstrated strong regional support for the name South West Tech School, which more accurately reflects the school’s geographical reach and inclusive partnerships across the areas of Warrnambool, Glenelg, Corangamite, Moyne, and Southern Grampians.
The school will be centrally located at South West TAFE’s Warrnambool campus.
The design has been created in consultation with students, local teachers, First Nations advisory group, industry and community groups.
The $12.65 million project is funded by the Department of Education.
It includes relocating automotive studies to South West TAFE’s Sherwood
Park campus, is funded by the Victorian Government, with the facility designed by Brand Architects.
The builder is expected to be appointed in October 2025.
Mr Keert said the Tech School was taking a new approach in integrating advanced technology.
“It’s not like the old model of technical colleges or schools but something new and exciting to connect south-west students to their futures through emerging and indemand opportunities,” Mr Keert said.
South West TAFE chief executive officer Mark Fidge said the tech school would add another important piece to Warrnambool’s educational precinct.
“Like the library, it is a separate entity but adds to what we can offer to students and the community from the South West TAFE Warrnambool campus site,” Mr Fidge said. More details about the new South West Tech School can be found at https://youtu. be/NDhVLdkYVyI

Sheepvention again enjoyed by thousands
SHEEPVENTION 2025 has cemented its place as Australia’s premier agricultural field day, with thousands flocking to the Hamilton Showgrounds to celebrate the enduring spirit of rural innovation in agriculture and community.
This year’s event not only paid tribute to our agricultural roots but also boldly stepped forward with new initiatives that captured the imagination of attendees, exhibitors and local leaders alike.
Sheepvention began over four decades ago and has evolved into a cornerstone of agricultural thought, showcasing breakthroughs in livestock breeding, agtech, and rural education.
The Innovation Hub, Farm Dog Championships, and White Suffolk feature breed reflected this year’s progressive tone, while maintaining beloved traditions like the wool shearing competitions, community organisation and local artisan displays.
Southern Grampians Shire Council praised the event’s scale and substance, noting the impact of sell-out ticketed events and the seamless coordination across sectors.
Exhibitors reported high engagement, government ministers expressed admiration for the community-driven focus, and sponsors voiced continued commitment to Sheepvention’s values of excellence and connection.
The inaugural Women in Ag Lunch, proudly supported by Agriculture Victoria, was a standout highlight - providing a powerful platform to celebrate female leadership and innovation across Australia’s farming sector.
This ticketed event was a sell-out success, drawing praise for its inspiring speakers and warm atmosphere.
Due to its success, the Women in Ag
luncheon will now become an annual event, amplifying voices that shape the future of farming.
Also run with strong impact, the Peter Schroder Breakfast Lecture hit its third year.
The panel discussion delivered deep insights into emerging consumer trends with respect to sheep meat and wool, and the need for the industry to start planning for these changing sentiments as demand for meat and wool products changes.
With record attendance and glowing feedback, this morning session is now firmly part of Sheepvention’s future.
The heart of Sheepvention 2025 beat strongly during the After Dark Drought Relief Concert.
AGL supported farmers in the district by purchasing 150 tickets and distributed them to those who needed them most.
This was a joyful yet purposeful gathering spotlighting mental health awareness and resilience in our rural communities.
Shannon Noll’s performance, support acts Michael Honan and Bec Milly, the Let’s Talk Foundation panel discussion, and live and silent auction items resulted in overwhelming support.
Attendees have described the night as “authentic,” “deeply moving,” and “a beacon of hope.”
This year’s Sheepvention, and evening under the stars, would not have been possible without the tireless work of volunteers, whose dedication and behindthe scenes mastery breathed life into every marquee, shed and moment.
From setup to pack-down, they are the quiet engine powering the event’s success year after year.
Volunteers were applauded for their warmth and professionalism, especially from exhibitors involved in the Ag Passport and exhibiting in the Innovation Hub.
Nick Petropoulos and Tori Beever from Wannon Creek Wildlife introduced a range of animals to children of all ages.
Members from the Hamilton Rotary Club were busy throughout the day feeding hungry visitors.

Have your say on council assets
Maintaining council assets, such as Flagstaff Hill, is an ongoing commitment and as such council is keen to hear the views of residents on prioritising them.
WARRNAMBOOL City Council’s assets - including the vehicle fleet, roads, drains and buildings – are worth more than $1 billion.
To maintain or renew these assets costs millions of dollars each year and meeting this need is a growing challenge for councils across Australia.
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said identifying priority assets was a key to managing infrastructure sustainably.
“We have an asset plan and every year we allocate a substantial portion of our budget to looking
after council assets,” Cr Blain said.
“We’re about to prepare a new asset plan and we’d like to hear the community’s views on the various types of assets we have.
“That will help us prioritise our efforts and ensure we are accommodating the community’s wishes when it comes to providing infrastructure that people need.
“Our assets are everywhere. When you’re driving, walking or riding to work you’ll use paths and roads built and maintained by council.
“If you play a sport, visit a library, watch a play or visit an art gallery it’s very likely you’re using council assets.”
Cr Blain said council wanted its assets to be enabling – but at the same time there is limitations on the resources available to look after them, which is why council wants to know how they fit in to your life.
“We’re encouraging all residents to provide us with feedback,” he said.
Simply go to www.yoursay warrnambool.com.au to complete the survey.
“We’ll also have printed copies of the survey available at the Civic Centre or we can mail you a copy, if need be, just give council a call on 5559 4800,” Cr Blain said.
New plan to grow live music
WARRNAMBOOL City Council this week adopted the ‘Creative Warrnambool Strategy’ at its meeting on Monday night.
The first initiative borne from the strategy is the development of the Live Music Action Plan and delivery of the 2025 Warrnambool Live Program – a series of music events for the CBD in October and November.
Expressions of interest are now open for venues, musicians and businesses related to the live music industry who would like to be involved, with the Live Music Office, APRA AMCOS and One Music partnering with council to provide funding.
These can be lodged on the newly launched Creative Warrnambool website at https://creative.warrnambool.vic.gov.au.
Warrnambool mayor Cr Ben Blain said the new strategy, website and music festival were all part of continuing the momentum from the huge success of triple J’s One Night Stand.
“While the name of the event was One Night Stand, we have been really strategic both before and after the event in developing partnerships that continue to support live music in Warrnambool,” Cr Blain said.
“SongHubs, SongMakers, the Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio, the Tram Tracks Tour, the Live Music Office and APRA AMCOS have all run programs here since last year’s One Night Stand, resulting in multiple musical recordings and industry experiences for local musicians.”
Cr Blain said that as well as gauging interest in the Warrnambool Live event, the sign-up process would help create an ongoing database to help venues find artists and vice-versa.
“We know there are businesses that want to host live music, and we know for sure there are musicians looking for more gigs,” he said.
“So as well as helping to match people for this specific event, the aim is to create a long-term resource. We’re starting with musicians and the plan is to expand to include painters, sculptors, dancers, performers and every other creative field.
“Looking at the amazing new Musical Warrnambool mural at the railway station, two things are clear. One is that Warrnambool has a long, proud and diverse history in the creative sphere, and the second is that for too long our creative achievements have flown under the radar.
“We want to work together with the community to bring visibility to our local talent and help connect creatives with the people, spaces and opportunities.”

HAMPDEN FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE AROUND THE GROUNDS Eagles’ dominance continues
HAMPDEN senior football ladder leaders North Warrnambool now sit four games clear of their nearest rivals after a convincing 68-point win over Cobden last weekend.
After 15 rounds the Eagles now sit comfortably on top with 13 wins under their belts and four games clear of their nearest rivals the Koroit Saints.
South Warrnambool, Warrnambool and Portland round out the top five, with the Terang Mortlake Bloods knocking on the door just percentage behind in sixth.
Last weekend’s split round also saw the Saints celebrate a 66-point win over Port Fairy while the Bloods enjoyed a 36-point victory over Hamilton at Melville Oval.
The remaining round 15 matches, to be played this Saturday, will see Camperdown at home to the Roosters while Warrnambool and Portland will meet at Reid Oval.
In the Open netball competition, Warrnambool currently holds top spot on the league ladder with 12 wins and just one loss to date.
The Koroit Saints currently sit just half a game behind in second, however Warrnambool has yet to play its round 15 fixture and will take on the sixth-placed Portland this weekend.
South Warrnambool currently sits in third, half a game ahead of the fourth-placed Cobden Bombers, but is also yet to play round 15 and will face Camperdown on Saturday.
Camperdown, sitting a game clear of Portland, currently rounds out the top five in the Open division.
& DISTRICT FOOTBALL
AROUND THE GROUNDS THE
LEAGUE AROUND THE GROUNDS
Tigers take the win
MERRIVALE now sits a game clear of Allansford on top of the Warrnambool and District League senior football ladder thanks to a 30-point win over the Cats last weekend.
Last Saturday’s top-of-the-table clash lived up to its pre-game hype, with both sides eager to assert dominance all over the Merrivale ground.
The visitors were quick out of the blocks, booting 4.4 in the opening term while containing the home side to 3.2.
The second quarter saw the Tigers bounce back and after dominating on the scoreboard, went in to the main break with a handy 10point lead.
This was extended to 28 points by threequarter time and after a relatively even final term, the Tigers took the win, 17.8.110 to 12.8.80.
Best for the victors were Sam Gleeson, Manny Sandow, Jalen Porer, Jack Johnstone,
Joseph Lenehan and Wilson Lenehan.
Dylan Weir led the goal scorers with three majors, followed by Jack Neave with a handy two.
For Allansford, Cooper Day, Bradley Edge, Brady Coutts, Zavier Mungean, Jonah Maher and Aiden Gordon were among the best.
Robbie Hare had a day out in front of goals, bagging five for the game.
The remaining two rounds of the home and away season will see Merrivale face Timboon this weekend before finishing with a home game against Russells Creek.
Allansford’s run home to finals will see them take on Dennington this weekend and Russells Creek in round 18.
In the Open netball competition, Nirranda remains undefeated on top of the table, followed by Merrivale, Allansford, Dennington and Timboon.
In an interesting run home to finals, Old Collegians and Kolora Noorat sit in sixth and seventh, just percentage behind the fifthplaced Demons.
FINALS Kangaroos take premiership
DESPITE a strong final quarter, South Warrnambool’s Open Women’s football side went down to Hamilton in last weekend’s grand final.
The Roosters, having finished top of the Western Victoria Female Football League ladder after going through the home and away season undefeated, were beaten on the scoreboard by the Kangaroos who celebrated a 17-point victory.
While the dream finish to what was a remarkable 2025 season wasn’t to be for the Roosters, the side will no doubt take many positives from the game.
Final scores last Sunday were Hamilton Kangaroos 7.4.46 to South Warrnambool 4.5.29.
Rosie Pickles, Sarah Roache, Maisey Waayers and Olivia Wolter each kicked one major for the Roosters while Pickles, Stella Bridgewater, Maya Netherway, Laura Curran, Sarah Roache and Olivia Wolter were all named in the best.
In the under 18 grand final, premiership honours went to Cavendish, who defeated Terang Mortlake 3.6.24 to 0.3.3.
Eagles soar
NORTH Warrnambool’s under 15 footballers have taken out the Western Victoria Female Football League 2025 premiership flag.
Playing in front of a big crowd at Reid Oval on Sunday, the Eagles put on a strong performance all over the ground to defeat the Koroit Saints, 2.8.20 to 1.2.8.
The win capped off a brilliant home and away season for the Eagles, who went through the eight rounds undefeated.
Scarlett Pearce and Zarah Timpson kicked a goal each for the victors and were named among the best alongside team captain Lily Shand and team-mates Rose Lumsden, Mae Roberts and Alexis Pickford.
Best for the Saints were Eliza McDonnell, Milla Gleeson, Zoe Dobson, Esther Gleeson, Charli Lathwell and Ella McLaren.
The Saints also had an incredibly successful season, finishing the home and away rounds with six wins under their belts.
In other grand final matches in the female football league last weekend, the Hamilton Kangaroos defeated South Warrnambool in the senior women’s division while in the under 18s, Cavendish defeated Terang Mortlake 3.6.24 to 0.3.3.
For more on-ground action from the Western Victoria Female Football League grand final matches turn to pages 18 and 19.
Eagles captain Lily Shand was named ‘best on ground’ for the grand final.
North Warrnambool’s Alexis Pickford was presented with the AFL medal.
