A fitting preliminary final

Andrew Rogers

THE Central Murray Football Netball League (CMFNL) A grade preliminary final sees an appropriate match up at Lalbert tomorrow.

After finishing second on the ladder Tooleybuc Manangatang takes on Woorinen which finished third.

For the winner is a spot in the grand final and the somewhat daunting task of taking on the so-far undefeated Swan Hill combination.

When the sides met in round 11 at Manangatang the result was a comfortable 18 goal win to the home side.

Mel Wait has had a strong season for the Saints and will be important again tomorrow, while Tayla Stanley has been good all year for the Tigers.

The pair have been accurate in front of goals for their sides in 2013 and finished the year first and second on the goal shooters’ table respectively.

Three Saints have performed strongly in the A grade MVP as well, with Claudia Powell, Julie Wardle and Laura Zanker all in the top 10 for 2013.
