FOOTY fanatics helped fund the Augusta Margaret River Junior Football Association recently by bidding on some prized merchandise.
Donated by the Department of Sports and Recreation, a signed Fremantle Dockers poster and a West Coast Eagles football signed by Nic Natanui went up for grabs in a silent auction in June.
The lucky winners of the items were Sean Howard and Geoff Barrett respectively.
Mr Howard joked he was no longer a Dockers supporter after the team's dismal performance of late, while Mr Barrett was happy to give his football away to his grandson.
"It's great to support the local community," Mr Barrett said.
The total amount raised was $650.
Members of the footy association thanked the department for its donation, as well as the locals who participated in the auction.
