Members of the Tigers’ premiership-winning 1985 A- and B-grade netball sides reunited at Rochester Recreation Reserve, 40 years on from their flag triumphs.
The reunion coincided with the club’s most recent outing against Shepparton Swans.
Six of the seven 1985 A-graders, Debra Hedington, Helen Ward, Karyn Monahan, Loretta Holman, Simone Walsh and 1985 Wellman medallist and club best and fairest Yvonne Wolfe, were in attendance.
Five of the B-grade side — Gill Ward, Leanne Miller, Lisa Sanderson, Louse Williams and Christine Hoopell — also reunited.
The gathered former teammates enjoyed a marquee containing club memorabilia, and tossed the coin at the A- and B-grade games.
