I have no doubt we'd have an entertaining conversation over a beer, once we get past the argument of who's buying. :lol:

CATHOLICS v VILLAINS - Villa will bounce back
STIRLING v MODS - Modbury will be really up for this one, but I'm hoping that home ground advantage will get us home
BEAKERS v SNAKES - they're not top of the league for nothing
PUMBAS v RED BEAGLES - haven't seen Pumas, but RBE are better than their league position suggests
OLD WOMEN v QUEENS - comfortably
Gleeson vs Villa- Think this will be a tight fought game, Villa might sneak over the line though.
Stirling vs Jets - Two great teams battling it out, think there will be a winner but I can't pick it.
Breakers vs Vipers- Breakers haven't lost in their last 8 games, hoping they will this week though
Pumas vs Eagles- Pumas unlucky in parts last week, they will bounce back at home.
Cougers vs Monarchs- Enough said :lol:

Gleeson vs Villa.......Will be a strong game with Gleeson pinching the home win in this one
Stirling vs Jets..........Jets in good form but Stirling with a game in hand need this one at home to keep their title chances alive.
Breakers vs Vipers........Windy weekend down Port Elliot but Vipers will enjoy their super flat pitch and sneak a win
Pumas vs Eagles........Poomas seem to have some depth issues going on last week, if RBE can sustain their 1st half onslaught they should get the points...Pooomas will come out strong.
Cougers vs Monarchs.......Unfortunately, I think Monarchs are set for the drop, Cougars too strong.

Breakers are in nose bleed territory sitting third and on a great run. Undefeated in 9 including beating the top 2 in their last 2 games. Does that put them in the mix for promotion?

Definitely. Top 6 are still all in with a chance for promotion IMO. Going to be an exciting end to a very even division this season. Our next two rounds will make or break us I think. Still anyone's.

Breakers play the counter attack just as good as anyone in the league. On their Narrow ground they were very hard to break down and they defended very very well as a unit. If they can take their home form on the road with them i think they could push for top 2. Vipers with a bad loss and some players will be put on NOTICE this week with their form coming into a crunch game with Stirling. Some big Ins to finally come back. :)

Cougars didn't lose to Breakers Otto.. Who are the top 2 in your mind?? Last I saw Vipers on top 2 points clear of Cougars who are 4 clear of Stirling, possibly 7 after round 12...

Good luck to the Breakers in the cup who have a very challenging road trip to Parafield Gardens. They are the only team representing the division this week... All the best Breakers!!! And good luck to the Cougars in the reserves cup this week, playing Bosa. The only team from Div 2 also!!! Good luck lads!!!!

we dominated but their keeper was by far the best player. We failed at the vital ingredient of not putting the ball in the net.

I was more intrigued by their B's getting a draw, we had a very weak side out and won easily.

Must not be easy for a club like the Breakers to be strong across the board... Logistically hard to find a quality 14 players who can compete in a pretty good league. Have a lot of admiration for the Breakers club. Great people who are extremely hospitable. Wish them well. Results speak for themselves. They've knocked off the best sides in the league consistently over a long period of time.. Definitely a team to watch this season.... I'm predicting a grandstand round 18 finish to decide the title winners and the other promoted side.

We swapped our formation to 3 at the back allowing an extra guy in attack to try and improve our For and against but it was a pretty ordinary display from our attack.

There B's are very young and we would have had 60-70% of the ball but could not hit the net, they got a goal from a in swinging corner ball that went over front posts head who obscured the keeper and in.. :lol: The guy that did it was hitting them like that but didn't look like coming off on the previous 3 corners, good luck to him.. Other than that our keeper had a comfortable day.

We are pretty skint in the B's and have been for about 6 weeks with starters either injured or away and our C's not strong enough to step up which means no pressure on the guys in the squad. A very ordinary effort from us on the weekend and doesn't look to get any better for another 2 weeks at least.

Just wondering why it's not being played at Bradwood Park on Saturday or even on Tuesday night? Are the lights at Bradwood not considered good enough? Neither team is in the cup and a night game leaves the Reserves match hanging as well.

No comment. I was just disappointed that the B grade won't be played.
