It was always going to be an emotional rollercoaster for Daylesford and Waubra on a day remembering the former Bulldogs president, who died suddenly in January.

But in the end the Kangaroos romped home by 71 points to claim the silverware and full forward Tim Boyle the best player medallion.

Boyle was pivotal in the third term with two quick goals knocking a Bulldogs drive on the head.

He backed up in the final quarter with two majors in the seven-goal avalanche that sunk the home side.

Boyle racked up five goals for the match and had good company with Josh King, Will Booth, Aaron Bird and Matt Dawson kicking two each.

Will Corbett, Josh Crawford, Dean Robertson and skipper Tom Nash added singles.

It was a tough job picking the best players for the Roos as it was an excellent showcase of talent and skill.

But the Lukich brothers were dominant out of the middle, with Geordie tapping and James doing the takeaways.

Nick Dinsdale, Ben Wilson and Alex Davis stood out from the pack as well.

Standouts for the Bulldogs were Joel Cowan, Cameron Lovig and Zac Tisdale. Ricky Costanzo, Josh Cooper and Cameron Ralph held their own.

Max Risstrom, Will Austin and Sam Winnard kicked goals, backing up singles from Ralph, Cowan and Lovig.

Waubra coach Grant Luscombe spoke about reversing the stinging defeat by Daylesford last year in the elimination final.

“The boys were pretty eager to do well today after last year. The second quarter was the hardest one for us. They congested it,” Luscombe said.

“At half time we made a few little changes and it worked.

“The changes opened the game up a bit and that’s what we’re happy with.”

Daylesford coach Marcus Goonan was in a sour mood after the game on Saturday and declined any comment.

Waubra is now third on the Central Highlands Football League ladder.
