Weekly Advertiser | It was a close round of Wimmera league A Grade matches at the weekend – with none closer than a draw between Ararat and Dimboola.

The Roos went out to a three-goal lead at quarter-time, holding it until half-time before Ararat clawed its way back in front 41-40 at the last change.

The Rats held its two-goal margin for most of the last term until the Roos hit the front with about six minutes on the clock.

It was then goal-for-goal, with spectators on the edge on their seats, as Roos shooter Nicole Polycarpou scoring with a minute to go to give her side a 53-52 lead until Ararat goal-
attack Maggie Astbury sunk a shot to draw the game.

Dimboola A Grade coach Ant Toet said she was pleased with her side’s first hit-out of the season after a bye in round one.
