Skippers records read as NAME (Win,Loss,Draw)
We have some cracker games this week as we head into the final 3 rounds. We still don’t know who will finish on top but we do know Leeming will be heading back to white. The Saints need to repeat last years form as they finish with the top 3 teams and Cockburn could possibly sneak the challenge game if they can win both their home fixtures. Lets get into it.
Cockburn v Bassendean
Cockburn
Stephen West, Giuseppi Galipo, Jim Ricci, Marc Abonnel (16W ,17L ,2D)
Jim Bell, Ivan Mateljak, Josip (Joe) Marevic, Tony Krajancic (101W ,82L ,14D)
Mirko Musulin, Stephen McGill, Derek Gibson, Michael Simunovic (1W ,5L ,0D)
Brian Blagaich, Peter Burgess, Steve Srhoy, Jordan King (6W ,5L ,0D) INS: Musulin OUTS: Elborough
Bassendean

Joel Hitchcock, David Snelgar, John Holman, Ruairi Kenyon (19W ,27L ,2D) INS: No changes OUTS:
Cockburn have a real chance here to get within sights of the challenge game should they win this one. With Sorrento taking on the premiers they will be looking for as many points as possible. The Lions have fallen in a heap in the last month and only just got over Leeming last week. I think Cockburn can win this one.
Cockburn 6-2
Leeming v Doubleview

Anthony Williams, Robert Muir, Peter Boys, James Bowden (3W ,10L ,0D)

Ben Conway, Jarrod Steele, Ryan Moyle, John Slavich (164W ,113L ,18D) INS: Steele OUTS: Wetzler
Leeming hosting Doubleview and although theres not much to play for the View will be looking for as many points as possible to give themselves a slim chance of making the challenge game. Leeming will be going back to white next year but would like to repeat their form from last week and give themselves a chance in this one. Surely Doubleview should be too good
Doubleview 7-1
Cambridge v Osborne Park

Gordon King, Christopher Orchard, Callum Alberti, Brad Gillingham (32W ,27L ,2D) INS: No changes OUTS:
What a belter we have here as the Knights host the Saints. Cambridge haven’t lost since round 5 and can just about end thing for the Saints and get a top 2 finish if they can continue on their winning way. The Saints have it all to do as they finish with the top 3 sides so they know they have to keep winning but I have to go the Knights.
Cambridge 7-1
Manning v South Perth
Manning
Andrew Lill, Laura Butler, Blake Butler, Kristina Van Nierop (17W ,10L ,3D)
Natham Pain, Mitchell Walker, Nathan Jones, Scott Walker (91W ,89L ,9D)

Match of the round as the Eagles host the Millers. The Millers if they win this one will be looking good for a top 2 finish with just the 2 rounds remaining. The Eagles haven’t been flash at home and should they lose this one it could see them out of the 4 if the Saints get up. Its all to play for here but im leaning towards the Eagles.
Manning 5-3
Sorrento v Mount Lawley
Sorrento
Steve Mortimer, Wendy Flack, Edan Manifis, Rhett Butler (130W ,145L ,9D)
Greg Taylor, Peter Flack, Ronald Haring, Murray Hulbert (14W ,14L ,0D)
Geoff Murray, Barney Fleiser, James Barry, Alan Walton (0W ,0L ,0D)
Philip Potts, Mark Douglass, David Dunstan, Chris Leggett (15W ,17L ,1D) INS: Fleiser OUTS: Munro
Mount Lawley
Paul Sinden, Chris Schell, Mark Masel, Ben Leggett (34W ,15L ,0D)
Adam Graham, Phillip Jones, Anthony Einfeld, Jack East (41W ,24L ,3D)
Kyle Cornell, Jeffrey Bessant, Shane Knott, Corey Bessant (40W ,24L ,3D)
Phillip Park, Shane Loftus, Darren Rowland, Daniel Trewhella (184W ,88L ,8D) INS: Knott OUTS: Morris
Our final game of the round and its Sorrento hosting the Mounters. Sorrento don’t have an easy run home at all and aren’t guaranteed the challenge game especially if Cockburn happen to get up. Mt Lawley need to win to stay in the hunt for a top 2 finish and I think they should get the job done.
