Today’s eight-page GAME ON coverage starts on Page 21, with all the football and netball action from the opening round of Murray league and Picola district league games during the weekend.
Riv photographer Steve Huntley was at Moama for the Magpies’ 80-point win against Rumbalara and also witnessed Mathoura’s opening to the season.
Tongala picked up from where it left off in 2021 with a 149-point win against Echuca United.
Mathoura, under threat of disbanding in the off-season, struggled to match it with Rennie in Picola district football and Picola United also lost its season opener.
Riv sports journalists Josh Huntley and Bransen Gibson have all the news from not only football action, but from the netball and voting details from the opening round of the Moama Bowling Club-Riverine Herald GAME ON Podcast $5000 Footballer and Netballer of the Year awards.
In other sport from the weekend, the Moama Steamers franchise played the opening round of the rich Ultimate Bowls Challenge and junior footballers were hosted at Victoria Park and Moama Recreation Reserve on Sunday.
Next week our GAME ON production will also have all the Goulburn Valley and Heathcote league results.
