WEDDERBURN and Boort draw their senior seasons to close on Saturday with tough final assignments.
For the Redbacks, they will likely finish in sixth spot on the ladder with a positive percentage.
Their form over the last month has demonstrated the capacity to match it with top sides, boosted by the upset victory over Nullawil.
However, Saturday may prove a bridge too far for a Redbacks’ lineup that was hit by injuries and player availability for much of the season.
The Redbacks take on undefeated Sea Lake Nandaly who ran out 79-point victors back in June.
On home turf and a much-more settled side, Wedderburn can be expected to make some serious inroads on that margin in its season farewell.
Boort, another team that has battled the loss of key players all season, there’s a chance of going a full four quarters against Nullawil. Coach Dale Cameron has elevated some of the Pies’ promising juniors in recent weeks as the club sets its senior sights on 2024.
The Pies will be challenged again in the ruck with Nathan Twigg now confirmed as out for the season.
While the seniors prepare to bow out, further strength for the future will emerge with Boort locked in to contest finals in reserves, under 17 and under 14 grades.
