Some very big games this Saturday!!!
TA’s vs SECRET HARBOUR-Both teams had important wins last week. TA’s continued their improved form defeating fellow improvers Jandakot. In doing so they kept their faint finals hopes alive and still find themselves 6 points adrift of the 5. They will need to win each of the 6 remaining games to pinch 5th. The Harbour found some better form at home and not only sured up a top 4 finish but kept hopes alive of obtaining 2nd/3rd and the double chance. For me this is a 50/50 game The Harbour don’t play as well away from their crap heap and TA’s are up and about. I’ll back the Trinity boys to keep the surge going.
Ressies-TA’s by 10+ goals
ROLEYSTONE vs SWAN VIEW-Last time these 2 teams met both were undefeated heading in and since then they’ve each headed separate directions. We all know the round 3 game was called off at 3/4 time with The View 20 goals ahead. I can guarantee that we are going up there to play 4 qtrs of hard,committed football as we have done all season,hopefully Roleystone can handle it a bit better this time around and not have to head hunt if and when they fall behind. The View by 5+ goals.
Ressies-The View by 4 goals
COCKBURN vs JANDAKOT-Massive game for Jandakot here. They need to get back on the winners list ASAP and before last week they probably would’ve pencilled this one in. However with a loss to TA’s and The Cobras getting a great win against Brentwood this now seems a genuine 50/50 game,especially if Jandakot are low in numbers. The Jandakot colts are playing at Noranda so they’ll have to fly down the highway if they are needed to double up. Cockburn would be cock a hoop after last week but now they have to back it up. Tossed a coin and went Jandakot by a goal.
Ressies-Draw
WEMBLEY vs BRENTWOOD-You’d think looking at ladder positions that Brentwood would win this easily and I think they will but it seems all is not well at Karoonda ATM. I said last week that it was no time to panic when sitting 2nd but after a loss to the bottom team,with players out and others struggling to be motivated they’d want to find some good form quickly in the lead up to the finals and sure up 2nd spot.Again they get another chance to do so here against lowly Wembley who we played last week. They didn’t have a very attacking mindset after qtr time so hopefully for the players sake they try and score a few goals and try to win the game. Good bunch of blokes but.
Anyway,Brentwood at home will be too strong,5+ goals.
Ressies-Wembley by 6 goals
SOUTHERN RIVER vs OSBORNE PARK-The River have had some patchy form of late! 3 bad losses and a win against 2nd placed Brentwood. Their spot in the 5 is safe but they need to stop the rot here and stay in contention for the double chance. They should do so at home against an Ozzy Park side who notched only their 4th win of the season last week. They’ve tried hard but would be disappointed with their season.
The River by 10 goals at home.
Ressies-The park by a goal
