Ellinbank & District Football League president Roger Gwynne told the Baw Baw Citizen the round’s results were “more-or-less predictable, except maybe Catani v Ellinbank.”
Catani defeated Ellinbank 10.9.69 to 7.8.50 in the Seniors game.
“I would have thought Ellinbank may have won that game but Catani… took out the points,” Gwynne said.
Poowong may have suffered a heavy defeat on the weekend, but the side’s win against Lang Lang in Round 17 was a landmark event this season, according to Gwynne.

“They haven’t won a game for two years and last week they won their first game, which was great,” he said.
“It comes in cycles. You have one team on top for two, three, four years, and [they] win a couple of flags, and then they fall by the wayside and another club takes over.”
EDFL finals start next weekend.
