MATCH REPORT: Salisbury defeat Le Fevre to capture Australian League finals
On Sunday the Findon Club, as a neutral venue, staged the 2014 Australian League finals and a capacity following from both contesting clubs, witnessed 24 heats of first class competition.
In the Division 1 event the powerful spearhead of unbeaten Shane Wienert and Joel Chadwick ensured that the Salisbury “Jets” captured the title. However the Le Fevre ” Dolphins” should be applauded for their efforts that restricted the final scoreline to just 9 points.

The Division 4 ( junior) event gave the Salisbury Club a double victory to celebrate but by a much closer margin of 3 points. Outstanding performances from the Le Fevre duo of Darnell Thompson and Jack Norman always kept the “Dolphins” in with a chance of victory but the overall strength of Salisbury became the deciding factor.
