Dimboola to test themselves against Nhill
Coach of Dimboola, Dean Toet, says his side has learned their lesson from last season heading into the game against Nhill this Saturday.
The teams will battle it out in round four of the Wimmera Football Netball League at Dimboola Recreation Reserve.
Nhill are currently third on the ladder for the league, with decent wins against both Horsham sides – the Demons and the Saints – so far this season.
Dimboola are seventh, with a win against Horsham Saints and a couple of losses.
The coach said he was expecting a hot contest from Nhill.
"They'll be quick and move the ball quickly too," Toet said.
"We expect something similar to, but maybe a bit better than, what they were last year.
"We went up there thinking we were going to get the job done and came back with our tails between our legs so we definitely won't be taking them lightly.
"In saying that, you can't take anyone lightly this season in the Wimmera league; the competition seems to be quite even, other than Ararat."
For Dimboola, the likes of Andrew Moore, Ben Miller, Dylan Landt and Simon Hobbs have been leading the way for their side so far this season, while for Nhill, Darcy Reid and Matt Kennedy have been best on field in both the games played by the team.
