Commentary

Numbers remained similar for a yarding of 3200 lambs. It was a pretty good quality yarding with some top pens of trade lambs along with odd pens of good heavy weights. There were also the usual runs of lighter lambs to suit the restockers. A full field of buyers were in attendance and competing solidly in a strong market.

Lambs to the restockers were firm with crossbreds going back to the paddock selling from $139 to $254/head. Trade lambs were $10 dearer with the 20kg to 24kg lambs selling from $264 to $336 to average between 1280c and 1320c/kg cwt. Heavy weight lambs were $8 dearer with the 24kg to 30kg lambs selling from $316 to $360 to average between 1220c and 1265c/kg cwt. Extra heavy weights sold to $375/head. Hoggets sold to $301/head.

Numbers fell by 1000 for a yarding of 1100 mutton where most grades were fully firm. Merino ewes sold from $170 to $272 while crossbred ewes sold from $225 to $320/head. Merino wethers sold from $182 to $285/head with most grades averaging between 820c and 915c/kg cwt.
