Best sports articles of 2025: The Burras claim the premiership



Warburton-Wesburn’s Senior Women’s side conquered Emerald in the grand final to snatch up their first premiership as a team.

The game started just before midday, and the sun was shining out at Powelltown, and the girls had a tough battle against a strong Emerald

With seven scoring shots to Emerald’s one in the first quarter, the momentum was with the Burras, although they seemed to be filled with nerves in the opening quarter.

But the mighty Burras had shrugged off the pressure and by half time, they were 22 points above Emerald.

The last term was the most exciting with six goals scored, and when the siren sounded, supporters filled the oval celebrating with their loved ones on the clubs achievement of an undefeated season and a premiership win.

Warburton-Wesburn’s first Division Two grand final will be one to remember, with a final score of 94 to 21.
