A Cap of Last Week’s Results
Warrnambool keep their final hope alive defeating the Hamilton Kangaroo by 7 goals (46 – 39) and currently sit in fourth position. Koroit easily accounted for the Magpies with the final score 70 – 20 and will help them for their endeavour for a top 3 finish.
Umpire Accreditation
A massive congratulations to Stacey Dwyer from the Port Fairy FNC who was successful in obtaining her B Badge accreditation last week. Stacey has worked tirelessly for the past few years to achieve this result. It was a fantastic effort. Well Done Stacey.
Congratulations also to Shelby O’Sullivan from the Koroit FNC and Sophie Conheady from the Camperdown FNC who were both successful in obtaining their C Badge Accreditation last Saturday. Thank you to all the testers who made themselves available to allow this too happen.
My Predictions for this Week
This week South Warrnambool verse Terang Mortlake. The Roosters will show why they are sitting top and will have a comfortable win over the Bloods. Terang Mortlake showed a lot of promise but have come up short in recent games. They undoubtedly have some talented younger players coming through and will be a strong finals contender next year. North Warrnambool will need to have a big win over Port Fairy if they are to give themselves a chance to finish top 3. They have a very tough run home and will need to be at their best for the remainder of the season, but I expect a percentage boosting win over the seagulls. In the third match this week Cobden take on Portland at Hanlon Park. Cobden will earn a win over the Tigers and will look for a more settled team game as they approach the finals series.
Ladder positions 3 – 6 are all still up for grabs. I expect some Clubs will be eager to check results of other games in the next few weeks as every result will have a big impact on the Top 5.
Good Luck to all teams competing this weekend and I hope the weather is kind to you all.
