MIRBOO North Football Netball Club features in five of the 10 Mid Gippsland grand final footy and netball fixtures at Ronald Reserve Morwell East this Saturday, September 10.

Mirboo North’s Appointments:

• 13s netball: MN v Hill End 8.00 am.

• Thirds football: MN v MDU 10.30 am.

• D Grade netball: MN v Yinnar 11.10 am.

• B Grade netball: MN v Toora 1.20pm.

• A Grade netball: MN v Toora 2.45 pm.

Abby Forrester (C) Will not stop running all day. Her speed and determination will inspire her teammates. Great in defence and attack.
Aleisha Loh (Emergency) Consistent goaler with plenty of finals experience.
Christina Stoeterbecker (GK) The smiling assassin of the team will be looking to cut off entry to the circle. Will fly for intercepts and pull in any rebounds.
Dani Blair (WA) The league’s WA of the year. She sets up our attacking end, is a beautiful mover and feeder, to always find her goalers.
Ebony Best (GA) Inspiring coach who leads by example. A force to be reckoned with under the post and in the whole attacking end.
Emily Taylor – c (GD) Will lead from the front and won’t stop running all day. She will pull in intercepts and rebounds when the team needs.
Jessie Holland (GS) Experienced finals player who is accurate from anywhere in the circle. She will keep doing anything to get her team over the line.
Louisa Pratt (WD) Will be tagging her WA all game, but also looking for some big intercepts down the court. She is a work horse.
Mikaeli Hilliar (Emergency) Very smart versatile player who can play defence or attack.

Mirboo North's A Grade netballers are ready to go for this week’s grand final against Toora and will be looking to give it their best. 

Mirboo North also won the 2022 MGNFL Cliff Greenwood Memorial Club Championship, among the 13 clubs for most wins across all grades of football and netball this season.

The mighty Tigers’ Hudson Kerr and Liam Nash were included in MGFNL’s 2022 football team of the year, with Danielle Blair selected in Mid Gippsland’s best A Grade netball side.

MNFNC’s Nick Cummaudo took out the MGFNL thirds under 18 best and fairest award, and Kat Smith was announced as the league’s D Grade netball winner by seven votes.   

Mirboo North’s Jayne Blackford won the MGFNL C Grade goal shooter’s award with 382 hoops for the season, and finished runner-up in the league’s best and fairest award.

Large numbers of Mirboo North’s yellow and black army of supporters are expected to travel to Morwell East to watch the Tigers in action. 

A pall of sadness has enveloped the club following the recent sudden passing of long time stalwart, servant and organiser, Bernice Snell, whose funeral will take place this Friday at Mirboo North’s St Joseph’s Catholic Church at 10.00am.

Afterwards, food and refreshments will be available for funeral goers at Mirboo North’s W J Tuck Recreation Reserve Tigerland headquarters.
