Bass had a great season winning 9 games to finish in second spot on the ladder and make the finals for the first time. They played their semi final against Nth Heidelberg at Northcote Park but were beaten. Masters failed to win a game and Flinders only won 2 games. The club song was updated for this season. It was set to the tune of “The Road to Gundagai”.

OOOOhhhh,

Come on boys make a noise,

We’re the red hot Raider boys,

We are the boys from Mornington,

You can bring up all your locals,

And bring them to the top,

But the Raiders boys are coming,

And they’re coming on the hop,

Come on boys make a noise,

We’re the red hot Raider boys,

We are the boys from Mornington,

(SPOKEN)

What do we sleep on?     SEAWEED!

What do we eat?     FISH!

How do we eat it?   RAW!
