Just 2 rounds to go and my call on the top 5 was correct with the top 5 all locked in with positions up for grabs still. effectively I think its just 3 in the relegation area with Belmont having an upset win against Kingsley on the weekend. They could still hit bottom 2 as they have the worst % but unlikely. Valley were 1 point down at 3/4 time and capitulated when they had a chance to stay in C2. Willetton against an in form Gosnells didn’t have enough fire power and The Knights way too strong for The Eels. I think The Knights are the team to beat at the moment and are on their way to C1.
Valley Vs Bulls - Valley have had the edge over The Bulls in the last few years for whatever reason giving them a fair shellacking in round 8. Bulls need a win to seal the home final and by a fair margin after Kingsley opened the door for them. I’m going my home team by 4 goals in their final home game of the year
Cats Vs Cobra’s - Not sure what happened with Kingsley on the weekend but have a couple weeks to fix it or it will be an early finals exit for them and they have gone from a potential 3rd spot or hosting a home final to 5th. I think they’ll perk up this week and get themselves back up to 4th by 6 goals.
Hawks Vs Bombers - The Hawks have a couple play makers that without them really will struggle but if they’re on there is no stopping them. They’ll get targeted in finals games and need to keep their heads. Bombers will do their best to get under their skin this weekend but lack the firepower The Hawks have. Hawks at home by 6 goals.
Eels Vs Falcons - 4 red cards is my mail to The Falcons on the weekend for all sorts (1 to Quinns) will see their depth tested depending on who those players are. Seems a pretty hectic game against The Bulls. Eels fell a couple goals short last time with some undisciplined stuff late and will be keen to make amends on their home deck. I’m going eels by 3 goals.
Blues Vs Knights - this is going to be 1 way traffic and The Knights are sharpening those swords at the moment. Knights to unleash by a lot.
Good luck all and enjoy the frothies
