Dubbo Bulls are one step away from completing the most incredible celebration in their storied two decades as a proud football club.
The “men and women in orange” took four of the six senior titles in the Dubbo and District Football Association (DDFA) grand finals over the weekend. It was as though orange was the new colour of Apex Oval as the Bulls also booked a spot in the Western Premier league Grand Final in a Friday night local derby.
Striker Jake Grady marked his long-awaited return from a leg injury, to slam home two first half-goals, as the Bulls held-off everything Jamie Lobb and his young Macquarie United team threw at them in a pulsating second half.
In other games, the Bulls took the First Grade decider 4-1 against MUFC (including a Callum Elliott hat-trick); Second Grade 4-0 over Spurs, Thirds 3-2 against MUFC (on Sunday morning) and the over 35s by winning a penalty shootout against Newtown.
But it didn’t go all their way, the Bulls Women’s teams went down 3-1 to a powerful RSL 78s side and 2-1 to North West Falcons.
Macquarie’s season did not go unrewarded either, with their under 12s, Under 13s, and Under 17s, all crowned premiers, with the Under 15s runners-up.
So, go Bulls in the Grand Final!
You are carrying the hopes of the entire Dubbo community. If you cannot make it to Proctor Park in Bathurst, on Saturday, September 21, you can livestream the game through the Club’s Facebook page or on the Western Premier League Football homepage.
