Three Seahawks divisions make AFL Canberra grand finals, a 'first for the club'

Seahawks operations manager, Michael Kenny said he hoped he would be holding three trophies come Saturday, September 7 as part of the Canberra Times 2024 Community competition.

"Just to have all three grades playing in a grand final on one day is a massive achievement in itself," Kenny said.

"Our division 1 men are looking to go back-to-back, they won last year.

"Our division 1 women actually got beaten in the grand final last year, so they are wanting to redeem themselves.

"And this is the first time we've had our division 2 men in a grand final since being in AFL Canberra in 2013."

The Seahawks had a strong season with both their division 1 men's and women's side securing the minor premiership, while division 2 men narrowly missed out and ended up second on the table.

At EPC Solar Park / Phillip Oval in the ACT, all three of the Seahawks divisions will be playing for their respective titles, with the women taking on ANU Griffins, and the Seahawks division 2 men against Woden Blues.

Division 1 men will also be taking on the Woden Blues, a game mirroring round one of finals, two weeks prior.

On that occasion the Seahawks had a really confident win against Woden Blues..

The men's side secured victory 104 points to 31, with four goals scored by leading league goal kicker Buster Ware and five by fellow Seahawk Brett Garland.

"We're a lot better as a side when we're home than when we are away, for different reasons, travel and familiarity with our ground, and the place we're playing Woden is their home ground," Kenny said.

"We haven't beaten them there this year, but we've won both at home [at Hanging Rock Oval]."

Kenny said the other players to keep an eye on would be those in the middle of the ground with Michael Thane, last year's AFL Canberra league medallist, Joseph Tegart in the ruck and Kyle O'Malley.

"Fingers crossed we can come home with three premiership cups, so we can drink out of them.

"Won't be a soft drink, I'll give you that tip," he said with a chuckle.
