Match Previews | The Bulldogs and Bears rivalry is renewed in this Saturday’s senior footy preliminary final in the Bendigo Bank Loddon Valley FNL.
Pyramid Hill will take on Bears-Lagoon Serpentine in a 2.15pm showdown at Calivil Recreation Reserve.
At stake is a place in the grand final against Marong on September 9 at Inglewood’s Dissy Machinery Oval.
Pyramid Hill is trying to break a lengthy premiership drought and the Bears last ruled the Loddon Valley when it won the ’95 grand final.
This season’s meetings between the preliminary finalists stand at three-nil in favour of Pyramid Hill.
They met just two weeks ago where the Bulldogs dominated after quarter-time to win the qualifying final by 69 points.
The Nathan Fitpatrick-coached Pyramid Hill scored 12.12 to 2.5 after the first break in that match at Bridgewater.
