When the Lismore Swans and the Casino Lions match up for the Anzac Day round on Saturday, they will be playing for much more than a simple win, loss or draw.
The first derby of the AFL North Coast which kicks off at Oakes Oval. Lismore, will see the teams vie for the prestigious Anzac Day plaque and a highly coveted Best on Ground medal.
But before the game the players, officials and fans will show their respect at the Anzac Day service held at the ground before the first bounce.
Ahead of the historic match and fresh off the AFL North Coast Festival of Footy, both coaches said they felt their teams would run out onto the ground and play a great game.
