The stage is set for one of the biggest games in West Gippsland netball this season with Tooradin-Dalmore and Inverloch-Kongwak putting their undefeated records on the line at Tooradin on Saturday.

The Seagulls have been one of the best teams in the region for many years now, claiming back-to-back flags in the now defunct South East competition in 2017-18, before winning the 2019 West Gippsland crown in their very first year in the competition.

Season 2020 was obviously called off due to Covid, while the Gulls sat third on the ladder – with a 9-2 record – when Covid stopped things again after round 11 last year.

It’s a magnificent record that is showing no signs of slowing down with the Gulls once again at the top of the pile…undefeated after six rounds.
