IN terms of how the 2025 North Central Football League is shaping up, Sea Lake Nandaly's 11 point win over Boort could not have come at a more perfect time for the Tigers.

The 10.11 (71) to 8.12 (60) score brings the reigning premiers closer to second place, as they sit one game behind Calder United and Boort, who both remain on 32 points.
