Match Preview | A clash of two of the A-grade netball competition’s best, Elmore and Colbinabbin features in Saturday’s start to the Bendigo Bank Heathcote DFNL season.

Elmore has home-court advantage for when the twilight clash begins at 5.45pm.

When these clubs last met it was Colbinabbin which ended Elmore’s quest for back-to-back premierships by winning the preliminary final.

Stung by consecutive finals losses last September, Elmore has plenty of motivation rolling into a new campaign.

The Bloods will again be jointly coached by Allira Holmes and Gabe Richards.

It was a brilliant run of 16-nil in the regular season, but Elmore was outplayed by White Hills and then Colbinabbin in the finals series.
