North Central: Nullawil and Wycheproof-Narraport play for final time

Nullawil and Wycheproof-Narraport have played for the final time in their existing club colours. See all the pictures from the historic occasion.

Nullawil has beaten Wycheproof-Narraport by nine points in their final match as stand-alone clubs before a merger takes place next year.

Both clubs will miss finals in the North Central league after Wedderburn beat Donald to clinch fourth spot ahead of Nullawil, which only joined the competition last year and reached the grand final.

The two clubs will play as Calder United Lions next year under co-coaches Darryl Wilson and Jordy Humphreys with Koby Hommelhoff to captain the team.
