Senior Sires
Sires that have shaped the Wallawong herd of the last 3 years are shown below. Their progeny will be available for sale at the 2010 Wallawong Sale.
Wallawong Quarterback (LEJ B1)
Quarterback is a dynamic young sire. He was the top priced bull when sold as a yearling at our 2007 sale. His dam is a consistent producer of superior quality offspring. A full sister was sold as the top priced heifer at our 2008 sale, selling to Western Australia. He is by the elite carcass sire L.Starbright S117, who’s male progeny have averaged $5031 at our annual sales. A high quality bull that we believe is suitable as a superior stud sire and true herd improver. He possesses excellent physical characteristics and performance data. Semen available for sale.

Wallawong Ripsnorter (LEJ C46)
Ripsnorter is considered one of the best junior bulls we have produced. He was a very growthy calf, at 10 months weighing 510kg with a frame score of 7.0, and a scrotal size of 36cm. His Breedplan figures are also very impressive. He was used over a large number of females in 2008 and 2009, with calves showing excellent potential. Semen available for sale.

Lindsay Starbright S117 (LSY S117)
Starbright was purchased in 2005. He was a colossal bull displaying exceptional thickness and muscularity. His EMA EBV is the 7th highest sire in the history of Murray Greys. His calves have sold to $13,000 and semen has been exported to Canada and America. We continue to be impressed with Starbright's progeny. They have calved easily and exhibited excellent growth and muscle content. To date his 16 Wallawong bull progeny have sold to $7,500 and averaged $5031 (total clearance at auction). Since his death in 2007, we have continued to use semen to further his bloodlines within the herd. Semen available for sale. More Information and photographs click here
Banksia Ridge Zorro Z7 (BNK Z7)Zorro was purchased privately in 2006 after inspecting bulls throughout Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia.
