Millicent tipster ready for footy season

MILLICENT resident Kevin Pech is hoping his AFL footy tipping skills again come to the fore during the upcoming 2020 season.

Over the past two decades, Kevin has successfully competed in the AFL tipping competition run by The South Eastern Times in association with Harvey Norman.

Kevin recently visited The South Eastern Times’ office and filled in a registration form.

The Essendon Bombers supporter is keen to be in the running for the weekly prizes worth $100 and the end-of-season prize worth $1000.

He has won multiple weekly prizes and one end-of-season prize in 2016 and has not always picked his beloved Essendon Bombers.

Kevin has a sentimental attachment to the red and blacks.

“However, I go on form when it comes to making my tips,” Kevin said.

“Essendon finished seventh last season and then got knocked out in the first final.

“It was great to see Millicent’s Mason Redman go so well last season,” he said.

Registration for the tipping contest is essential and must be lodged by 5pm on March 9.

The forms may be dropped into the South Eastern Times office in Davenport Street or posted to Box 22, Millicent, 5280.

Full details on how to enter each week will be posted to participants.

Registration forms are published in The South Eastern Times.
