The Coorong Cats have remained undefeated and become champions in the River Murray Football League's 2024 grand final.
The Cats out-matched the Mypolonga Tigers in Saturday’s A grade grand final at Mannum, winning 19.9 (123) to 5.3 (33).
The Cats took an early lead from the start of the match, with Mypo only managing to score their first goal at the end of the second quarter.
At half time the Cats were up 10.4 (64) to 1.3 (9).
Their continuous defensive pressure didn't allow their opposition to gain any time or space to move the ball down the field.
Although Mypo did manage to score a further four goals in the second half, catching up was an impossibility.
Coorong's Alex Stidiford, who had already been named in the RMFL team of the year, was presented with the best on ground Bohdan Cybulka Medal.

Player-coach Daniel Menzel said that Mypolonga were a great team and club to be up against for the big game.
"There's only good things I hear (about Mypo) ... you're an incredible club and you guys will be back here no doubt," he said after the match.
"The RMFL is an amazing league and there's a reason why more people are joining each season.
"To the volunteers and all our countless supporters ... you guys are amazing, it just outstands me how many of you there out there every Tuesday, Thursday and weekends.
"To the boys ... we are going to enjoy this and celebrate this, we will forever be the inaugural premiership players of the Coorong Cats."

The Coorong Cats joined the River Murray Football League last season following a merger between Meningie and Border Downs-Tintinara.
The Meningie Bears had last won an RMFL premiership in 2014, and only one other before that despite a history stretching back more than a century.
By contrast, the BDT Crows got used to winning in the old Mallee league – they won 12 premierships between 2004 and 2021.
Other premiership teams for the day included Tailem Bend, Imperials and the Southern Mallee Suns.
- Reserves: Imperials 7.9 (51) defeated Southern Mallee Suns 3.5 (23), Reschke Medal winner Dylan Schenscher
- Under 18s: Tailem Bend 9.8 (62) defeated Jervois 6.7 (43), Schenke Medal winner Sam White
- Under 15.5: Tailem Bend 6.8 (44) defeated Ramblers 5.2 (32), Kluske Medal winner Aden Wilson
- Under 13: Southern Mallee Suns 4.3 (27) defeated Imperials 3.3 (21), Maynard Brothers Medal winner Timothy Moyle
