Central Wimmera Premiers Hopes Face Final Rounds
With two rounds left in the Central Wimmera league Horsham and Natimuk lead with 24 points, Rupanyup 20, and Dimboola 18 as Pimpinio and Murtoa are out of title contention. Tomorrow’s games may not decide the outcome, but next week’s matches could. A key issue is team selection as senior withdrawals may affect finals eligibility, while Rupanyup hosts Natimuk and Pimpinio travels to Morton in the remaining games.
