The Kerang Reserves Best & Fairest was a closer affair, with Harry Saunders taking home the award by just one vote from Cody Tuohey, while in the Colts B&F it was Tyson Clingan with 52 votes who won from Jonah McKnight and Sean Hunter, who both tied for second with 44 votes.
In the netball, Emma Peacock took home the A Grade Best & Fairest after polling 13 votes, to win by just two votes, with Sophie Peacock Runner-Up on 11 votes.
Meanwhile, the Kerang Women’s Football Team Best & Fairest count was also held on Wednesday night, with Sophie Peacock showing she can not only dominate on the netball court, but also with the Sherrin, as she took home the Women’s Best & Fairest with 75 votes, from Jemma Meehan who finished as Runner-Up on 57 votes.

RAIDERS LOCK AWAY TWO MORE
KOONDROOK-BARHAM have continued their re-signing spree, recently announcing two of their key local players have put pen to paper for 2022.
The spring heeled Kye Attwell and reliable defender Jaryd Wishart have both recommitted to the Raiders for next season, as they look to rebound after this year’s disappointing season.
Attwell and Wishart’s re-signing comes hot on the heels of the announcement of Aaron Collins as the new head coach of Koondrook-Barham and the re-signing of Kal Huntly and Jake Dick-O’Flaherty.
