Saturday Lotto: Two West Aussies score $2m each in massive Lotto win
Not one, but two lucky West Australians have won $2 million each in the Saturday Lotto Superdraw’s division one prize pool.
The WA winners were two out of 10 punters Australia-wide to be receiving the grand prize.
The winning tickets were sold from Forrestfield Marketplace News and a Lotterywest Network Syndicate.

According to Lotterwest, WA’s division one wins come to a whopping total of 54 for 2024 — with these players’ prizes coming to around $105 million.
Lotterywest spokesperson James Mooney said the Superdraw has raised millions for the company’s grants programs.
“It’s fantastic to be celebrating more WA winners thanks to Saturday Lotto,” he said.
“This is our sixth Saturday Lotto Superdraw for 2024, with these draws collectively raising around $19.2 million for our grants program.
“Supporting hundreds of community organisations across the State with grants is what Lotterywest is all about, and it’s WA players and retailers who make this possible.”
The winning numbers are 42, 35, one, 43, 25 and 29, and the supplementary numbers are 19 and 31.
The news comes after Thursday’s entire Division One Powerball jackpot — equating to $30 million — was won by an eastern suburbs player.
Bets are on for what the two lucky Saturday Lotto winners will spend their millions on after last week’s winner planned to celebrate his $1.2 million win by treating his family to a fancy breakfast.
