There are a few gem games this week with plenty of matches that are ripe for an upset.
The Gems
The round starts with the Cows v Roosters up in Cowboy-ville.
This is the game of the round despite it being 8th v 2nd on the ladder. Both teams can score points, and this is a fast dry track.
Prepare to be amazed but it’s Roosters for me.
The Titans v Warriors will also be an entertaining game. The Titans are in form and looking for a hattrick of wins while the high-flying Warriors have been a bit inconsistent.
The Wahs need this win as much as the Titans and I’m backing the boys across the ditch to win this one.
Magic in Mudgee Round 2.
We all know the sequel usually doesn’t live up to the original.
Will this game will be more like Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit or Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back?
The Panthers lead the competition but have been win/loss of late while the Raiders are holding onto a finals birth with a string of wins. But it’s only a matter of time before the Panthers hit their stride in time for the run to the finals
The Easy Beat
Are you looking for a standout?
Nothings screams Standout more than the Dragons v Dolphins game in the Gong on Friday night.
The Drags are looking for their 3rd victim of the year, but it won’t be this game. The ‘Phins average 27 points a game which is too much for the Dragons (lack of) attack to claw back.
