THE 10th anniversary of "Dizey's Day" proved to be a smash hit for Temora, breaking through the $100,000 mark in funds raised.

The Tuskers went all out for the popular day this year, holding a captain's day on Friday night before the big day on Saturday.

More than $87,000 had already raised for various charitable causes over the past nine events, are organisers were confident the target of $100,000 would be achieved.

And rightfully so, with more than $15,000 raised over the two days.

World Cup-winning coach Bob Dwyer was a special guest for the captain's dinner and stayed to watch the Temora defeat Wagga City.

The success on the field was another big part of the day with the Tuskers turning the tables on their rivals from earlier results this season.

The Boiled Lollies won all four grades in June, but buoyed by a large home crowd the Tuskers were able to win first and second grade along with the women's sevens.

Just falling short of a clean sweep, the under 17 team went down by five points, but was still a big turnaround from the 54-17 loss earlier this season.

"It was a big success and we won the footy too, so it was a great day for our club," assistant treasurer Kris Dunstan said.

"Friday night was a massive success, the guest speakers were excellent and Bob Dwyer had a front row seat (on Saturday) and was pleasantly surprised by the standard."

The win keeps the Tuskers' finals hopes in their own hands, but taking some shine off the win were injuries to Aisake Tuevu and Jake Cartwright.

Tuevu has been struggling with a back-related hamstring injury and only lasted a few minutes, while Cartwright suffered a neck injury.

Another traditional aspect of Dizey's Day is the invitational game between the Temora Allstars and the Dragonfly Barbarians.

In a close contest it was the Wagga-based team that came away with a controversial win - with a penalty try on full-time the difference between the two teams.

The event first flourished as a way to celebrate the life of one of Tuskers' most cherished supporters, Dianne "Dizey" Boom, and has grown into a major annual charity event in Temora and the surrounding district.

This year's funds will go to mental health initiatives in and around Temora.
