So the end of the first round has been completed and Cott look to be the only one that will be playing finals with the other 3 teams being anyone's guess.
COTT-Will play finals with a squad that will have one at most local junior in it ,much easier to just buy players in. Will win minor premiership but will get rolled come finals time because we all know where they are vunerable.
NEDDIES-Mid season blues ,new coaches and little depth but will have enough class to tough it out and will make it.Senior players need to get to training because it's pissing off the younger guy's.
WESTS-Set piece is a work in progress but have class in the backs that can rip any team to shreds. Best set of loosies in comp. Most professionally managed team in the world.Will make it just.
UNI-Will be awaiting the return of Scobles and Burto from u/20's along with Van Dykes, add in best 6 in the comp Cian O'Connor and will be big threat
KALA-Have flown in 2 more recruits and have spent up large with a formidable pack but will struggle on the outsides where everyone will target. Have pissed off a lot of local loyal players who are now playing league. Will be close
SOAKS-You don't know what you get from one week to the next with Soaks. Will hit form but dropping first five games will come back to haunt them. Will just miss out.
PALY-Their heart and soul has been ripped out by the unfortunate loss of Joe Savage.The impact of the man is not to be underestimated and several of their big guns have failed to fire. Will be looking to blood several U/19's for the future from that team who will be unbeaten this season. Won't make it so Wests can fire in their Force lads come finals time this season with no guilty feeling's.
BAYSIE-Any team with Brent Murphy in it is not to be taken lightly. Solid pack with a lot of youth in the backs. Will cause a few upsets but started too slow this season. Not to be taken lightly but won't make it. Possibly needed one more big ball carrying forward in the Josh Beer mould.
WANNEROO-Long season. Hope they stick with their mission statement. Contrary to rumours floating around they will be playing 1st grade for a long time because the comradery that exists between clubs won't allow anything but that to happen.
