Horsham Demons claim 79-point win in grand final, crowned under 14 premiers
Horsham Demons beat Ararat Rats at Dimboola.
The Horsham Demons have put on a dominating display in the WFNL under 14s grand final, beating Ararat 12.13 (85) - 1.0 (6).
Demons coach Peter Both said it was a season of relief to see his side finish off such an unbeaten season lifting the premiership cup.
"Everytime we watch them play, we see them improve and that's the best feeling," he said.
Both said it was his players hard work that got them the upper hand on the field.
"We knew it was going to be hard work, we've played [Ararat] four runs," he said.
"We did think that if we can get the ball clean out of the stoppage, we had a good target in Lincoln Tucker up forwards."
Demons' vice captain Chaz Smith earned the matches best on ground medal.
"He's had a pretty good year," said Both.
"He's had a special season, he's going to get some fantastic opportunities moving forward, it'll be good to watch from afar."
