Bridgewater demolishes Marong by 99 points in grand final

Bridgewater demolished Marong 154-55 by kicking 19 goals to 4 in the final two quarters.

The Mean Machine led Marong by just four points at half-time, but the second half became folklore. Bridgewater booted 19 goals to four in the final two quarters in perfect conditions at Serpentine.

Oscar McKinley kicked 11 goals, with six coming in the third quarter alone. Mitch Patten added seven goals for Bridgewater.

The win was part of a dominant sweep: the club also claimed the reserves and under-18 premierships, plus two netball flags. Mitiamo's netball team won their third straight A-grade premiership, becoming the first LVFNL club since 2010 to win three in a row.
