After an impressive 31-match winning streak and back-to-back premierships, the club is setting its sights on the Far West record of 40 consecutive wins, currently held by Thevenard.

Coach Craig Irvine shared that the team discovered this historic milestone opportunity during their grand final celebrations.

To match Thevenard’s record, the reigning premiers will need to win their first nine games next season and then secure a victory in round 10.

With homegrown talent Harlee Chandler returning in 2025, they’re feeling optimistic about their chances.
