The marquee event of the day – and of the season – will see the powerhouse United Yeelanna Eagles take on the Lock Roos in a Grand Final that pits tradition against hunger.

The Eagles are chasing an astonishing 11th premiership in 13 seasons and a seventh in a row, cementing their dynasty as one of the most dominant in country football. Lock, on the other hand, are desperate to break a drought that stretches back to 1997. The Roos haven’t lifted the cup in nearly three decades – and they’ll see this as their golden chance.

These teams have met three times this year:
Round 1: United Yeelanna 9.12 (66) def Lock 5.3 (33)
Round 8: United Yeelanna 9.10 (64) def Lock 8.13 (61)
2nd Semi Final: United Yeelanna 10.7 (67) def Lock 7.7 (49)

The B Grade Grand Final promises to be one of the day’s most intriguing contests. Tumby Bay and United Yeelanna have already crossed paths twice in 2025, with the Blues victorious on both occasions. In Round 4, Tumby Bay flexed their muscle with a commanding 15.15 (105) to 0.0 (0) win, holding the Eagles scoreless. Their second meeting in Round 11 was tighter, but the Blues still prevailed 6.8 (44) to 3.4 (22).

The day kicks off with a cracking Senior Colts Grand Final between Tumby Bay and Cummins Kapinnie. The Blues have been the benchmark this year, winning both meetings comfortably. In Round 5, the Cougars were forced to forfeit, and in Round 12, Tumby Bay showed their class with an 11.12 (78) to 3.9 (27) victory.

The Mini Colts Grand Final sets up a fascinating contrast of styles. Tumby Bay have been dominant all year, while Ramblers are chasing an upset against the odds.
