Final female football round

-

Wimmera teams will vie for glory in the final round of the inaugural Deakin University Female Football League homeand-away season on Sunday.

Horsham Saints have only dropped one game for the season and will start favourite against seventh-placed Old Collegians.

Horsham will look to bounce back from a tough loss to Horsham Saints when it hosts bottom side Warrnamboo­l Blues, while Stawell will look to back up a comprehens­ive victory over Old Collegians with a win against Portland.

Portland has four wins from five games and will start favourite against the Warriors, who have a two-three win-loss ratio.

The season will culminate with a round-robin finals day and league best and fairest count at Hamilton’s Melville Oval on July 2.

The league acts as a selection ground for the Western Rebels Under-16 squad, which will participat­e in state championsh­ips later in the year.

It is also a launching pad to Greater Western Victoria Rebels TAC Academy, state league and the AFL’S women’s league. Round-six results: Stawell Warriors 15.19 (109) d Old Collegians 0.0 (0), Horsham Saints 9.20 (74) d Horsham Demons 0.0 (0).
