Wanneroo turned the tables on 2008 premiers Kalamunda with an impressive 34-17 win in the opening round of the 2009 KWIK club competition. The northern club lost all three clashes last year, including the grand final, but this year the Roo-dogs rounded up the Bulls with a big second half, capped off with a sparkling attack led by Cook Islands sevens international Koiatu Koiatu.

The local pundits must have missed something in the preseason. I thought Uni was going to fight it out for the comp according to some people and Paly were destined to forfeit more than they play???????![]()
Fulvio accused all and sundry of attempting to buy a premiership to cover up Paly's own little spending spree![]()
C'mon the![]()

Au contraire, Gigs, I don't think I accused any club of trying to buy a premiership, not this year at least. I merely commented on how well they had recruited, and I was pretty well spot on in that regard.
I just chose not to build up unreasonable expectations by waxing lyrical on any prospects Pally had, that's all.
One swallow does not a summer make, and Palmyra will likely have it's backside kicked this week by a resurgent Nedlands, buoyed by its draw against Perth.
Perth, according to the very well informed Rick Boyd is a very powerful and slick combination with heaps of new Rep. players (see his article last week).
For Nedlands to manage a draw against them means Nedlands must be very strong also. The Palmyra Uni clash was just a battle of the cellar dwellers, after all.
