The Wynnum Manly Seagulls Cyril Connell Cup side have capped off a remarkable season in the best way possible, claiming a 26–12 victory over the Norths Devils in the Grand Final.
Finishing the regular season as minor premiers and remaining undefeated throughout the year, the Seagulls carried their outstanding form into the decider and rose to the occasion on the biggest stage. In a composed and confident performance, the boys showcased the same grit, teamwork and attacking flair that defined their season, proving too strong for a determined Devils outfit.
The win marks a historic moment for the club, with this being the first time a Wynnum Manly Cyril Connell team has secured a Grand Final victory. It’s a fitting reward for a group that has shown consistency, resilience and a strong team-first mentality from Round 1 right through to the final whistle of the season.
Congratulations to head coaches Paul Boase and Jon Buchanan, along with their coaching staff, for their outstanding leadership and dedication throughout the season.
A special mention also goes to Tyce Perren, who was deservedly named the McDonald’s Player of the Match for his standout performance in the Grand Final.
Congratulations to all players, coaches and staff involved in what has been an unforgettable campaign.
