While Lancefield footballers signed off for the season at the weekend, Romsey and Wallan are still in the race, preparing for the first finals round this Saturday.

Slowly making its way to securing finals, Wallan will play the first qualifying final round against Diggers Rest this Saturday, after finishing second place in the last round of the Riddell District Football Netball League (RDFNL).

Finals chances also spread to Romsey, where the side will go head-to-head with Macedon in the first elimination final on Saturday.

The Redbacks proved they could defeat Macedon at the weekend with a 6-point win, but can the side make the same fate, and kick to even a further lead?

Elsewhere, the Tigers walked away from the RDFNL competition in a brutal game, sharing the field with top guns Riddell, who are currently top of the ladder, with one loss to its name.

For Riddell, the match was a practice game before heading into final rounds, gripping onto the ball for most of the game until the scoreboard showed 3-108 at the buzzer.

Unfortunately, Lancefield was not able to end the season with a win, but nonetheless, the Club saw a great turnout from its supporters, who also got to witness the official launch for the Bendigo Bank Lancefield Gift, with a guest appearance from John Dinan at half time.

The Lancefield Gift was once one of the biggest sporting events in the district, featuring many runners, including Mr Dinan who won the Stawell Gift in 1980, and is on the Bendigo Bank Lancefield Gift organising committee.

The revived version of the Bendigo Bank Lancefield Gift will feature the richest 400m race in Victoria, expected to draw athletes from around the country in the same way it did in its earlier versions.
