The 2018 Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 Team of the Year has been announced.

The teams have been selected for the 2018 Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 Grand Final.

They were the top two sides at the conclusion of the home and away season and now Macleod and West Preston-Lakeside sit just one win away from premiership glory.

Macleod is determined to redeem itself in this year’s Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 grand final after falling short in the past two premiership deciders.

West Preston-Lakeside is taking in every moment in the lead up to the Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 grand final.

A 40-man squad has been announced ahead of the selection of the 2018 Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 Team of the Year.

West Preston-Lakeside will face Macleod in the 2018 Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 grand final after a dominant 70-point victory over North Heidelberg in the preliminary final.

For the second time in a fortnight North Heidelberg and West Preston-Lakeside meet at Preston City Oval, with the prize for this week’s winner a spot in the grand final.

It has been 16 years since a senior flag has been brought home to Panther Place but a win this weekend can finally end the club’s premiership drought.

A ten-goal masterclass by Ahmed Saad handed West Preston-Lakeside its first finals win since 2011 and propelled the Roosters into the Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 preliminary final.

Macleod booked its place in a fourth-consecutive Meadows Greyhounds Division 1 grand final with a hard fought 13-point victory over North Heidelberg in the second semi final.
