League Review | Lockington Bamawm United capped a brilliant finish to beat Mount Pleasant for the Bendigo Bank Heathcote District Football Netball League’s senior footy premiership on Saturday.
The Cats and Blues fought out a great match before thousands of fans at Huntly’s Strauch Reserve.
Stung by a 38-point loss to Mount Pleasant in the second semi-final, LBU turned up the heat from the first contest of the clash to decide the season’s champions.
The Brodie Collins-coached Cats raced to a 31-1 lead as their workrate and pressure, especially at centre clearances and stoppages was at a much higher level than the Blues.
The LBU attack led by Jarod Bacon and Anthony McMahon capitalised on the early dominance.
