Match Preview | North Warrnambool has booked the first ticket into the 2025 Hampden FNL Grand Final after producing a commanding second-half performance to defeat Koroit in last weekend’s second semi-final.

The Eagles’ A Graders lifted when it mattered most, taking on the challenge and guiding their side home in style. It was yet another reminder of why the Eagles have been the benchmark across the past five years. They have now qualified for their fifth consecutive Grand Final and will once again set their sights on a long-awaited maiden premiership.

In the first semi-final, South Warrnambool were simply at their best.

The Roosters dominated Warrnambool at Leura Oval in front of a strong crowd, showing the trademark intensity and ball movement that has carried them deep into September so many times before.

The 2023 premiers were ruthless across the ground and gave the Blues little opportunity to settle into the contest. With that victory, South has earned the right to meet Koroit this weekend at Melville Oval in Hamilton, with the prize being the last remaining place in this year’s Grand Final.
