Mid West-Gascoyne footy wrap: Lancelin Ledge Point headline round with after-the-siren win

Lancelin Ledge Point had a fourth quarter for the ages with a 15-point comeback in the final term against Jurien Bay in the Central Midlands Coastal Football League, with Harley Bywaters kicking the sealer after the siren to win.

The icing on the cake was that this all happened in Bevan Hendon’s 150th game for Lancelin Ledge Point as the Pirates trailed for the entire contest until the final siren.

Brayden Meyers, Jackson Martino, Jackson Lake, Jake Kennedy and Liam Harrington were judged best on ground for the Pirates, with Meyers booting three goals, while teammates Bywaters and Harrington kicking two goals apiece.

For Jurien Bay it was Lucas Griffiths, Ryan Steers, Mitchell Price, Joel Latham and Jaygar Martin who were the best performers for the visitors, with Curtis Altinier kicking three majors.

Jurien Bay led from the start and restricted scoring for the Pirates as the Bulldogs were in charge for most of the game. The Bulldogs won every quarter apart from the final term when the Pirates clawed their way back into the game, setting up a thrilling finish.

Jurien Bay failed to kick a major in the final term while the Pirates, who were down 15 points entering the final quarter, managed to get back into the contest with a four-goal term.

One of those came after the siren to win the game ,with Bywater stepping up to the task and securing the win for fellow Pirate Hendon in his 150th game.

The Pirates celebrated, with the final score reading Lancelin Ledge Point 8.10 (58) to Jurien Bay 6.16 (52).
