O'Keefe's IGA Seymour Reserves 

Seymour 2.5.17 v Echuca 17.9.111


It was tough going for a very undermanned Reserves side against the top of the table Echuca.

The side was helped out by a number of Under 18s players who put everything out there for the club.

Unfortunately, Echuca raced out of the blocks despite the valiant efforts of Sam Fuhrmeister and Ollie Lubeck in the ruck.

The third quarter was the highlight for the Lions with Riley Graham kicking two majors to get the boys on the board.

Barclay Roach stood out in a very early outing for the club, well supported by Ishaq Ali who has gone from strength to strength this season.

The boys will be looking for an improved result at home this week as we take on Benalla.


Best: S Fuhrmeister, B Roach, I Ali, R Graham, O Lubeck

Seymour Club Seniors

Seymour 7.6.48 v Echuca 23.14.152


The Lions were outgunned by an incredibly strong Echuca outfit that dominated the game from the outset.

The first quarter saw Echuca jump out of the blocks and kick away to a five goal lead at quarter time.

The second term saw a much better display from the Lions but Echuca was still able to build on their lead before piling on 13 second half foals.

Dylan Scopel fought hard down back under extreme pressure and was well supported around the ground by the determination of Seamus Feery.

Cooper Lubeck and Jack Murphy picked up plenty of possessions around the ground with Riley Mason doing likewise, playing most of the game on the wing.

The Lions will look to get back on the winner’s list next week against Benalla.


Best: D Scopel, J Murphy, C Lubeck, R Mason, S Feery
Goals: R Mason 3, S Feery 1, M McLean 1, J Morgan 1, R Schraven 1

Lions re-sign stars for 2026

By Mitch Itter • July 31, 2025
The Seymour Football Netball Club (SFNC) has announced its first re-signings for 2026 with a group of five key players putting pen to paper. Current Senior Co-Coach Jack Murphy headlines the group, returning next season after a dominant year so far. Fellow midfielders Nathan Beattie, reigning Senior Best & Fairest winner, and Nic Quigg, VFL listed inside mid, have also both signed on the dotted line. Key forward Nathan Fowler will bring up 50 Senior games in his next outing for the Lions and will be back for his fourth year at The Den in 2026. Rounding out the five is Huw Jones, who has missed the entire 2024 season after a knee reconstruction, but will be ready to go come Round 1 2026. SFNC President Peter Elliott said these re-signings demonstrate the strong belief within the playing group about the list's potential. “We’re thrilled to have these five boys back on board for next season. It sends a clear message that we’re serious about challenging the very best teams in the league,” Mr Elliott said. “Jack Murphy has been outstanding as our Senior Co-Coach this year and his passion is unmatched. Nathan Beattie and Nic Quigg are star midfielders, and having all three on the park together will make us formidable in the middle. “Nathan Fowler is a true heart and soul player and a key presence up forward. We also can’t wait to see Huwy running out again in 2026. “While we’re out of finals contention this year, we’re focused on finishing the season strong and look forward to announcing more re-signings in the coming weeks.”
