who's running hot

1neddies have struggled with injury in the 2nd round but with uptown 8 players this week back bally is starting to think maybe this year.will beat cott this weekend and claim there 4th minor premiershiphip in a row

2 cott with same tight games not going there way will be desperate to win to just build confidence for the finals

3paly the form team at the moment built on the back of sum front foot ball but will have the weakest backrow in the finals

4 West barring a poor performance this weekend with so much to play for we will see the most consistant team march into the finals.patentially could go all the way but

with a 9/10combo who's decision making is at best inconsistent and may undo them .

have Neddies got a reliable goal kicker?...lost the last two GFs because crucial kicks were missed

Does any know how many times Neddies actually won the comp in the last 10 years,Cott will be waiting for Spoons to get back,he will make a massive difference but may lose one of their big men [wait and see]Ryan Louwrens is a very very good halfback.Paly are putting some very good games together with the best frontrow in town and their 7 Stapleton is also a very handy type.Wests have a ton of injuries but have shown massive resolve and treat each game as their last and are a tight group that play for each other but if we don't beat Rocky this week it will all be for nothing anyway

Cant comment on the other clubs but you are right re Spoons and the missing Tob H at 12 marshaling the back line attack and more importantly defense - Should be an interesting game for both teams this week.

Two weeks in a row of Neddies and Cott beating the crap outa each other.

This is better than the UFC!

Westies - just watched the game on line - good hard rugby with some rather weird interpretations at ruck time and re the offside line for both teams. Your scrum took a pounding but all in all played in good spirits.

Re you comment above - I hope you are not referring to where your 9 was battered in the gang tackle in front of the camera..... Please tell me that Wests are not complaining about that bit... no further comment on this one until you can confirm...

What time does this occur? Could be worth a look at?

not sure without going through it again but its second half. Close to the wall and below the camera. rick forms and the 9 does not get up post clearance. takes a know from the Cott 8 but I can see no malice just about eight players pilling in.
